The present invention provides a method of measuring a component in blood, by which the amounts of blood cells and an interfering substance can be measured with high accuracy and high reliability and the amount of the component can be corrected accurately based on the amounts of the blood cells and the interfering substance. In a sensor for measuring a blood component, a first working electrode 13 measures a current that flows during a redox reaction of a blood component, a second working electrode 17 measures the amount of blood cells, and a third working electrode 12 measures the amount of an interfering substance. Next, based on the measurement results, the amount of the blood component to be measured is corrected. Thus, more accurate and precise measurement of the amount of the blood component can be realized.

The present invention provides a method of measuring a component in blood, by which an amount of the component can be corrected accurately by measuring a hematocrit (Hct) value of the blood with high accuracy and high reliability and also provides a sensor used in the method. The sensor for measuring a component in blood has a first analysis portion and a second analysis portion. The first analysis portion has a first electrode system (11,12) and a reagent layer (14), and the reagent layer (14) has an oxidoreductase that acts on the component and a mediator. In the first analysis portion, the component in the blood is measured by causing a redox reaction of the component with the oxidoreductase in the presence of the mediator and detecting a redox current caused when a voltage is applied by the first electrode (11,12). The second analysis portion has a working electrode and a counter electrode, and a mediator is provided on the counter electrode but not on the working electrode. In the second analysis portion, a Hct value of the blood is measured by supplying the blood to the electrode system, applying a voltage to cause a current to flow, and detecting a value of the current. Using this Hct value, the amount of the component is corrected.

摘要:
A reagent layer of a sensor contains as a mediator a quinone compound having a hydrophilic functional group, phenanthrenequinone, and/or a phenanthrenequinone derivative. The quinone compound has a lower redox potential than a conventional mediator, so interfering substances have less effect on detection results with this sensor.
摘要:
A voltage is applied across a counter electrode and a working electrode while an oxidant of a redox substance is in contact with the counter electrode and is not substantially in contact with the working electrode, and thereby metal that readily undergoes electrolytic oxidation forming at least part of a surface of the working electrode is oxidized while the oxidant in contact with the working electrode is reduced, such that a current produced upon the oxidation and the reduction is measured. According to the above constitution, while lowering the voltage applied across the working electrode and the counter electrode, a hematocrit value of a blood sample can be measured stably with satisfactory detection sensitivity. This measurement can be carried out, for example, with a sensor chip comprising a working electrode 11, a counter electrode 12, and a blood sample holder 14 in communication with a blood sample inlet 16, wherein a portion 31 of the working electrode 11 is disposed closer to the blood sample inlet 16 than a portion 32 of the counter electrode is, a surface of the portion 31 includes the metal that readily undergoes electrolytic oxidation, and a reagent 13 containing the oxidant is disposed in contact with the portion 32.
