Abstract
Abstract PCT No. PCT/JP87/00463 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 3, 1989 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 3, 1990 PCT Filed Jul. 3, 1987 PCT Pub. No. WO88/00339 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 14, 1988.A probe for measuring oxygen concentration including an immobilized polypyridine metal complex, which can be used for measurement of oxygen concentration even in a case where the exciting ray to be used and luminescence are visible rays and which can stably be used even when it is directly immersed in a liquid to be examined without a protective membrane, which makes miniaturization of a probe possible.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
117 words
A probe for measuring oxygen concentration by luminescence quenching, comprising a support made of a material that conducts visible light and an immobilized polypyridine metal complex film on said support, said film comprising: a metal selected from the group consisting of ruthenium, osmium, chromium, iridium, iron, cobalt and europium; a polypyridine ligand selected from the group consisting of bipyridine, phenanthroline, terpyridine and derivatives thereof for complexing with said metal to form the polypyridine metal complex, said polypyridine liqand having a polymerizable vinyl group; and means for immobilizing the polypyridine metal complex in the film, wherein said means is a macromolecule prepared by polymerizing said polypyridine ligand then reacting a metal complex to form the polypyridine metal complex.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
117 words
A probe for measuring oxygen concentration by luminescence quenching, comprising a support made of a material that conducts visible light and an immobilized polypyridine metal complex film on said support, said film comprising: a metal selected from the group consisting of ruthenium, osmium, chromium, iridium, iron, cobalt and europium; a polypyridine ligand selected from the group consisting of bipyridine, phenanthroline, terpyridine and derivatives thereof for complexing with said metal to form the polypyridine metal complex, said polypyridine liqand having a polymerizable vinyl group; and means for immobilizing the polypyridine metal complex in the film, wherein said means is a macromolecule prepared by polymerizing said polypyridine ligand then reacting a metal complex to form the polypyridine metal complex.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
14 words
The probe of claim 1, wherein said metal is selected from ruthenium and osmium.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
10 words
The probe of claim 1, wherein said metal is ruthenium.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
11 words
The probe of claim 1, wherein the polypyridine ligand is bypyridine.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
29 words
The probe of claim 1, wherein the polypyridine metal complex is represented by the following formula: ##STR6## wherein M is selected from the group consisting of ruthenium and osmium.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
36 words
The probe of claim 1, wherein the macromolecule is prepared by copolymerizing a polypyridine ligand having a polymerizable vinyl group with a copolymerizable monomer and then reacting a metal complex to form the polypyridine metal complex.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
23 words
The probe of claim 6, wherein the copolymerizable monomer is selected from the group consisting of styrene, methacrylic acid, acrylic acid and acrylonitrile.
