PHOTOLUMINESCENT ANALYTE PARTIAL VOLUME PROBE SET
First Claim
1. A probe set from which the volume fraction of a gaseous target-analyte in a mass can be ascertained, comprising:
- (a) a first probe comprising an optically-active, target-analyte partial pressure sensitive material constrained to experience changes in the total pressure of the mass without experiencing changes in the volume fraction of target-analyte in the mass, whereby the first probe can report total pressure of the mass, and(b) a second probe comprising an optically-active, target-analyte partial pressure sensitive material configured and arranged to experience changes in target-analyte partial pressure in the mass, whereby the second probe can report target-analyte partial pressure in the mass.

Abstract
A self-contained, remotely interrogatable, autonomously positionable, pressure probe (20) set from which the volume fraction of a gaseous target-analyte (VA) in a mass, susceptible to changes in both total pressure of the mass (PT) and concentration of target-analyte in the mass (VA), can be ascertained, and methods of manufacturing and using. The probe set includes (i) a first probe (21) comprises an optically-active, target-analyte partial pressure sensitive material (31) configured and arranged to experience changes in PA in the mass, whereby the first probe can report PA in the mass, and (ii) a second probe (22) comprises an optically-active, PA-sensitive material constrained to experience changes in PT without experiencing changes in the VA, whereby the second probe can report PT of the mass.
