    Abstract: The present invention relates to organic thin film sensors and the preparation and use thereof in sensing applications, and in particular in glucose sensing. The sensor is characterised by a layered structure comprising a porous wicking layer whose surface is configured to receive a liquid sample. An enzyme is disposed on or within the porous layer for facilitating the generation of a charge carrier from an analyte. A polymer layer in contact with the porous layer is connected to an ohmic conductor for applying a gate voltage to the polymer layer, the polymer layer being conductive to the charge carrier; and an organic semiconducting layer is connected to a source electrode and a drain electrode.

    Abstract: A chromogenic absorbent material for hemoglobin and glucose detection in an animal excretion is provided. The chromogenic absorbent material comprises a benzidine-type compound, an organic hydroperoxide, an oxidoreductase, a peroxidase, a pseudoperoxidase or a combination thereof, and a polysaccharide matrix, comprising: from about 10 wt % to about 32.5 wt % chemically or mechanically processed non-functionalized cellulose; from about 25 wt % to about 70 wt % pregelatinized starch (PGS); from 0 wt % to about 20 wt % guar gum; from 0 wt % to about 25 wt % methyl hydroxyethyl cellulose (MHEC); from 0 wt % to about 15 wt % hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC); and from 0 wt % to about 10 wt % carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC).
