				<BLOCKQUOTE><FONT FACE="Verdana"><FONT SIZE=1>The EPSIS 240II now
				boasts a new hardware configuration for software selectable two
				electrode and three electrode modes of sensor interrogation. This
				is a key and important development. With the two electrode mode,
				the user may now reliably and conveniently interrogate conductive
				polymer gas and vapor phase analytes -- useful in the development
				of electronic noses and VOC sensors - without resorting to
				previous electrode patch-ins. EPSIS continues, in its
				three-electrode mode, to offer its innovative electroconductive
				polymer sensor interrogation configuration for the development of
				conductimetric chemical sensors and biosensors.</FONT></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>
				<BLOCKQUOTE><FONT FACE="Verdana"><FONT SIZE=1>EPSIS is the first
				of its kind sensor interrogation system designed specifically for
				research and applications-specific product development of
				chemical and biological sensors based on electroconductive
				polymer sensor technology. EPSIS is based on a patented
				analytical method that combines potentiometric, potentiostatic,
				and superior pulsed DC chronocoulometric capabilities in one
				unit. These electrochemical capabilities are sequentially
				combined to provide a powerful and versatile detection and
				measurement scheme that is unique to electroconductive polymer
				transducers. The result is a conductimetric response that
				detects, measures, and reports changes in electrical conductivity
				as electroconductive transducers respond to specific analytes to
				which they have been rendered chemically or biologically
				specific.</FONT></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>

					</FONT></B>Electroactive polymers such as, <I>polypyrrole</I>,
					<I>polyaniline</I>, and <I>poly(3-hexylthiophene)</I> display
					very dramatic changes in electrical (electronic) conductivity
					upon oxidation or reduction. The oxidation/reduction reactions
					of these polymers may be driven by an impressed electrode
					potential or by the chemical potential energy of a chemical
					oxidizing or reducing agent. The resulting electrical
					conductivity of these chemically sensitive polymers (under
					controlled circumstances) is precisely governed by the state of
					charge or extent of oxidation/reduction of the polymer. These
					features identify electroconductive polymers as
					transducer-active materials well suited to chemical and
					biological sensor applications. EPSIS is based on the simple
					principle that the amount of current (or charge) traversing a
					fixed dimension of electroconductive polymer film may be
					modulated by the chemical potential energy (concentration) of an
					analyte with which it is in intimate contact and to which it has
					been rendered specific. EPSIS uses this chemoresistance
					principle and exploits the very large changes in electrical
					impedance which accompanies the mediated oxidation/reduction of
					electroactive polymers fabricated on interdigitated microsensor
					electrodes.<BR><BR></FONT><B><FONT COLOR="#00af00">&Oslash;
					</FONT></B>EPSIS uses a patented analytical method which first
					evaluates the integrity of the electroconductive polymer device,
					initializes it to a user specified extent of charge to establish
					a known and reproducible starting electrical conductivity, then
					interrogates it with non-pertubating, small amplitude, short
					duration pulses to reveal time dependent changes in electronic
					conductivity as the device responds to an analyte. Sensor
					responses may be kinetic when the rate of change in electrical
					conductivity is monitored or equilibrium when the extent of
					change in electrical conductivity is monitored.</FONT>
