    Abstract: A diffusion medium (10) for use in a fuel cell, a fuel cell (80) and a method (60) of making the diffusion medium (10) are provided. The diffusion medium (10) includes a porous substrate (12) having a first surface (14) and a second surface (16), a microporous layer (18) formed on the first surface (14) of the porous substrate (12), and a plurality of water-retaining portions (20) formed on the microporous layer (18). The porous substrate (12) is electrically conductive. The microporous layer (18) provides a hydrophobic surface (22). The water-retaining portions (20) define a hydrophilic area (24) on the hydrophobic surface (22) of the microporous layer (18).

    Abstract: A sensing system for detecting a substance in a dialysate. The system includes a hydrophobic barrier capable of allowing the substance in the dialysate to equilibrate to a gas; a detector capable of detecting the gas; an interface disposed between the hydrophobic barrier and the detector and configured to allow fluid communication of the gas; and one or more delivery mechanisms capable of transporting the gas from the hydrophobic barrier to the detector. A method of detecting ammonium gas in a dialysate is also provided.

    Abstract: A fuel cell assembly (10) is provided. The fuel cell assembly (10) includes a first endplate (12), a second endplate (14), a plurality of separator plates (16) provided between the first and second endplates (12) and (14), and a plurality of fuel cells (18) forming a fuel cell stack (20). Each of the fuel cells (18) is provided between adjacent ones of the separator plates (16). A plurality of oxidant flow channels (22) is formed in the separator plates (16). The oxidant flow channels (22) define a first flow passage. Each of the fuel cells (18) has an active area. A portion (28) of the separator plates (16) extends beyond the active area of the fuel cells (18) to define a second flow passage at a downstream portion of the first flow passage.
