Sensor devices for detecting components in fluid samples, especially by electrolytic analytical methods, comprising a detecting means (usually an anode, especially one of platinum) surrounded by a selectively permeable membrane barrier composed of a mixture of polyvinyl chloride and polyaryl sulphone polymers. Preferred proportions of the polymers are 1 to 9 parts of polyaryl sulphone for each part of polyvinyl chloride, and the mixture may be formed into membranes by solution casting. Preferably this barrier is used with an inner membrane, especially of porous polycarbonate. In use, these polymer mixtures are especially useful in their selective permeability to glucose. Also provided are methods for their use in analysis, and the polyvinyl chloride/ polyaryl sulphone polymer compositions themselves and membranes made from them.
