摘要:
The present invention provides a measurement device facilitating accurate quantitation of a substrate from a trace amount of sample and a highly reliable quantitating method of a substrate. The method uses an analysis element comprising a pair of electrodes for electrochemically quantitating reaction between a substrate in a sample and an oxidoreductase. One of the electrodes of the analysis element is a membrane formed on an inner wall of a cylindrical hollow space having an opening and the other is a needle. The needle electrode is projected temporarily external to the hollow space to puncture a subject and the resultant sample is collected from the subject.

Disclosed is an electrode probe and a body fluid examination equipment enabling examination of a trace amount of body fluid. The electrode probe comprises an insulating needle member, a working electrode lead disposed in the needle member, a working electrode whose lead is protruding outside from the needle member, a counter electrode disposed on the surface of the needle member, a lead connected to the counter electrode, and a reagent layer disposed in contact with or in the vicinity of the working and counter electrodes of the electrode system. When a trace amount of body fluid leaking on the skin surface is brought into contact with the reagent layer, the reagent layer dissolves which results in electron transfer whereby information about the concentration of analyte in the body fluid can be obtained from the electrode system.

A cholesterol sensor for quantitative determination of cholesterol is provided containing an electrode system and a reaction reagent system. The electrode system contains a measuring electrode such as a carbon electrode and a counter electrode, and the reaction reagent system contains cholesterol dehydrogenase, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and an oxidized electron mediator. Electron mediators include ferricyanide, 1,2-naphthoquinone-4-sulfonate, 2,6-dichlorophenol indophenol, dimethylbenzoquinone, 1-methoxy-5-methylphenazinium sulfate, methylene blue, gallocyanine, thionine, phenazine methosulfate and Meldola's blue. Diaphorase, cholesterol esterase and a surfactant may also be present. The electrode system is on an insulating base plate, and the base plate has a covering member containing a groove that is a sample supplying channel which extends from an end of the base plate to the electrode system. A reaction layer containing the reagent system in dry form and a layer of a hydrophilic polymer is provided on the base plate or the covering member, or on both the electrode system and covering member so as to be exposed to the sample supplying channel. During operation, the electron mediator is reduced in conjunction with oxidation of cholesterol in a sample by cholesterol dehydrogenase, and an amount of current required to electrochemically re-oxidize the electron mediator is directly proportional to a quantity of cholesterol present in the sample.
