Title: Aerosolisable material for insertion into an aerosol provision device
Inventor: ANDREW THORNTON
IPC: A24F40/50
Filed: 2019-11-25
Abstract: An aerosol provision device comprises: a heating chamber 112 for receiving aerosolisable material 110 and comprising an inlet 130 and an outlet 132; an inlet valve 534 associated with the inlet 130; and an outlet valve 536 associated with the outlet 132. The valves 534, 536 are moveable from a first configuration in which the inlet/outlet is sealed to substantially prevent gaseous flow, to a second configuration in which gaseous flow through the inlet/outlet is permitted, wherein movement between the two configurations is responsive to a change in a property of the heating chamber 112. The property may be one of: a temperature; a pressure; and/or an aerosol concentration, and may be measured by a sensor 506. In one embodiment, the valves 534, 536 may be actuated electronically in response to sensor data, or in response to user input (i.e. a switch, a puff sensor). In another embodiment, the valves may comprise actuators in the form of shape memory material (i.e. shape memory alloy) responsive to heat stimulus, or they may comprise wax actuators which change phase.

Title: Microfluidic point-of-care assay
Inventor: NIKOLAOS SOTIRIOS VASILAKIS
IPC: G01N33/74
Filed: 2020-03-19
Abstract: Integrated fluid sample test strip 100 with an inlet 102 for a fluid sample and substrate solution. The inlet has a retention valve 104 for temporarily retaining each solution and reducing air flow past the valve; this may reduce dead volumes in the strip. A reaction chamber 106 receives solutions from the inlet via the retention valve and comprises bioreceptors for binding to an analyte. A capillary pump 110 receives solutions from the reaction chamber and comprises at least one vent hole 112 for air to escape the pump. A hydrophobic vent hole 118 couples to a test chamber comprising electrodes for biosensing; when the hydrophobic vent is unsealed, solution flows from the reaction chamber into the test chamber or, when sealed, into the capillary pump instead. The strip may measure hormone levels, such as cortisol levels in saliva, and may be used to perform an ELISA or ELONA test.
