Abstract: The present disclosure describes a surgical access apparatus including an access member with a longitudinal opening defining an internal dimension suitable for removable receipt of a surgical instrument. The access member has a thread mounted thereon that is movable between a first condition and a second condition. When the thread is in the first condition, the access member defines a first outer dimension that allows for positioning of the access member within a tissue tract, and when the thread is in the second condition, the access member defines a second, larger outer dimension to facilitate anchoring of the access member within the tissue tract. As the thread moves between the first and second conditions, the internal dimension of the longitudinal opening extending through the access member remains substantially constant.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing an enzymatic reagent ink for use in analytical test strips (such as electrochemical-based analytical test strips configured for the determination of glucose in blood) includes determining a first relationship between wetability of a representative hydrophobic silica material (e.g., a hydrophobic fumed silica material) and at least a first calibration characteristic (for example, a calibration slope) of an analytical test strip that includes an enzymatic reagent ink containing the representative hydrophobic silica material. In the method, the first relationship defines a minimum wetability that provides an acceptable first calibration characteristic. The method also includes determining a second relationship defining wetability of a mixture of a particular hydrophobic silica material and a particular surfactant across a range of relative amount of the particular hydrophobic silica material and the particular surfactant and, subsequently, combining an amount of the particular hydrophobic silica material, an amount of the particular surfactant, and an amount of enzyme (such as glucose oxidase) to form an enzymatic reagent ink. Moreover, the amounts of the particular hydrophobic silica material and the particular surfactant are predetermined based on the second relationship to provide at least the minimum wetability defined by the first relationship.
