ABSTRACT:
The invention is an improved method and apparatus for collecting analytes on a dermal patch, where the patch controls the ionization state of the analyte. This can be accomplished by delivering electricity to the patch or by a buffer or other means for controlling the pH of fluids entering the patch. Analytes in perspiration can be concentrated on the patch without the occurrence of significant back-diffusion of the analytes.
