TRANSDERMAL DETECTION SYSTEM

摘要

A transdermal detection system for the detection of a target substance which migrates to the surface of the skin of a subject by diffusion comprises detector means and attachment means. The detector means includes at least one detector chemical contained in solution and capable of chemically reacting with the target substance as the target substance migrates to the skin surface of the subject to produce a detectable signal, and a barrier means for substantially preventing migration of the detector chemical into the skin surface of the subject. The attachment means maintains the detector means adjacent the surface of the skin of the subject.
