Methods and devices for determining the concentration of an analyte in a physiological sample are provided. In the subject methods the physiological , sample is introduced into an electrochemical cell having a working and reference electrode. A first electric potential is applied to the cell and the resultant cell current over a period of time is measured to determine a first time-current transient. A second electric potential of opposite polarity is then applied and a second time-current transient is determined. The preliminary concentration of the analyte is then calculated from the first and/or second time-current transient. This preliminary analyte concentration less a …

Why it's free to use
- Filed January 25, 2001. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended January 25, 2021.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by January 25, 2023.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
