Abstract:
In a bioluminescent sensor system there is provided a fluid path for passing vapors across a bioluminescent microorganism sensor to momentarily test for a specific vapor and a recirculating fluid path for otherwise passing humidified air across the sensor to provide humidification to condition the sensor environment to preclude the loss of moisture from the sensor microorganism and stabilize the luminescence and response characteristics of the sensor culture.
