Sensors for Real-Time Analysis
advanced sampling options and detection technology
Ocean Optics optical sensors provide a viable alternative to traditional chemical sensing
devices and consist of transducer materials applied to the tips of optical fibers or to
substrates such as patches or cuvettes. These indicator materials change optical properties
in response to specific analytes in their immediate environment, with formulations
available for a variety of oxygen and pH sensing needs.
Thanks to our developments in sensor detection technology and sampling options, you
can enjoy lower system prices and greater application versatility than ever before.
NeoFox Interface
NeoFox Phase Measurement System
A new option for the detection part of our fluorescence-based optical sensor systems helps reduce costs, improve
system stability and make calibration easier for most oxygen sensing setups. NeoFox is a benchtop device for
measurement of fluorescence lifetime, phase and intensity, and is especially useful for applications where sensitivity to
drift and system stability are important. What's more, NeoFox is about half of the cost of our previous phase-
measurement system, and includes a self-calibration feature for improved electronic stability.
