Leland C. Clark Jr. (December 4, 1918 – September 25, 2005) was an American biochemist born in Rochester, New York. He is most well known as the inventor of the Clark electrode, a device used for measuring oxygen in blood, water and other liquids. Clark is considered the "father of biosensors", and the modern-day glucose sensor used daily by millions of diabetics is based on his research. He conducted pioneering research on heart-lung machines in the 1940s and '50s and was holder of more than 25 patents. Although he developed a fluorocarbon-based liquid that could be breathed successfully by mice in place of air, his lifelong goal of developing artificial blood remained unfulfilled at the time of his death. He is the inventor of Oxycyte, a third-generation perfluorocarbon (PFC) therapeutic

  • Leland C. Clark Jr. (* 4. Dezember 1918 in Rochester, US-Bundesstaat New York; † 25. September 2005 in Cincinnati, US-Bundesstaat Ohio) war ein US-amerikanischer Biochemiker. Er war Hochschullehrer an der University of Cincinnati und Erfinder der nach ihm benannten Clark-Elektrode zur Bestimmung des Sauerstoffpartialdrucks. Daneben forschte er in den 1940er und 1950er Jahren zu Herz-Lungen-Maschinen, war an der Entwicklung von kontinuierlich messenden Glucosesensoren beteiligt, die von Diabetikern zur Einstellung der Insulinwerte verwendet werden, und war Inhaber zahlreicher Patente. Weiters war er führend an der Entwicklung von Oxycyte tätig, einem therapeutischen Perfluorcarbon (PFC) der dritten Generation, das als Sauerstoffträger und Blutersatz dient. Leland Clark wurde 1995 in die National Academy of Engineering (NAE) gewählt und erhielt 2005 den Wissenschaftspreis Fritz J. and Dolores H. Russ Prize für seine Arbeiten zu membranbasierenden Biosensoren. (de)

  • Leland C. Clark jr. (Rochester, 4 dicembre 1918 – 25 settembre 2005) è stato un biochimico e fisiologo statunitense. Si laurea in chimica nel 1941 e consegue il dottorato in biochimica e fisiologia nel 1944 presso la University of Rochester. Inizia la sua carriera accademica all'Antioch College a Yellow Springs che proseguirà in Alabama e all'Università di Cincinnati. Il suo nome è legato a importanti studi in campo sia medico che chimico: * nel 1956 brevetta un sensore per la misura dell'ossigeno disciolto (sensore di Clark); * agli inizi degli anni sessanta immobilizza su un sensore a ossigeno un enzima (glucosio ossidasi) per realizzare uno strumento che misurasse la concentrazione di glucosio. Crea così il primo biosensore; * tentando di creare un sangue artificiale scopre che alcuni fluorocarburi sciolgono bene ossigeno molecolare e anidride carbonica. (it)
