A tablet cartridge includes a rotor, a tablet stopper, a case, and a stopper cover. The rotor has a plurality of guide-teeth protruding at regular intervals along a circumference of the rotor, and has tablet insertion grooves formed between the guide-teeth. The tablet stopper is disposed to close a top of one of the tablet insertion grooves. The case includes a dispensing opening formed at a position on a lower portion of the rotor accommodating portion, corresponding to a position of the tablet stopper, and a stopper insertion hole of a length that allows for the tablet stopper to adjust its height while being inserted into the stopper insertion hole. The stopper cover is coupled to the case to close the stopper insertion groove, and has the tablet stopper mounted thereon at an adjusted height.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for amplifying a signal in an immunochro-matographic assay for high-sensitivity detection of an analyte and an immunochromatographic kit using the method, which amplifies a signal by controlling a flow rate by discrimination between the size of a first indicator and the size of a second indicator. According to an aspect of the present invention, a method for amplifying a signal in an immunochromatographic assay includes: binding a primary conjugate body, which has a first antibody binding specifically to a first epitope of an analyte, a connector, and a first indicator to which the first antibody and the connector are bound, to the analyte; binding the analyte bound to the primary conjugate body to an immobilized second antibody binding specifically to a second epitope of the analyte; and binding a secondary conjugate body, which has a third antibody binding specifically to the connector of the primary conjugate body and a second indicator to which the third antibody is bound, to the connector of the primary conjugate body, wherein the primary conjugate body is disposed nearer to the immobilized second antibody than the secondary conjugate body, and the particle of the second indicator is larger than the particle of the first indicator, so that the secondary conjugate body reaches the immobilized second antibody later than the primary conjugate body. According to another aspect of the present invention, an immunochromatographic kit includes: a sample pad to which a liquid sample containing an analyte is applied; a conjugate pad including a primary conjugate body having a first antibody binding specifically to a first epitope of an analyte, a connector, and a first indicator to which the first antibody and the connector are bound, and a secondary conjugate body having a third antibody binding specifically to the connector of the primary conjugate body and a second indicator to which the third antibody is bound, wherein the primary conjugate body is disposed nearer to an immobilized second antibody than the secondary conjugate body and the second indicator is larger than the first indicator so that the secondary conjugate body reaches the immobilized second antibody later than the primary conjugate body; a membrane including a detection site immobilizing thereto the second antibody binding specifically to a second epitope of the analyte to which the primary conjugate body is bound, and a control site for error detection; and an absorbing pad absorbing the liquid sample by a capillary phenomenon. Thus, the present invention can perform signal amplification without separate mechanical control or artificial step-by-step reaction.

The present invention provides a lateral flow immunoassay device for qualitative or quantitative analysis of an analyte of interest in a whole blood sample with a more rapid and accurate result. This device includes a sample receiving pad, a conjugate pad, a flow delaying pad and a wicking membrane in this order. A polycation is provided within and bound to the sample receiving pad in order to separate the red blood cell from the whole blood sample. A relation between average pore size (P1) of the sample receiving pad, average pore size (P2) of the conjugate pad, and average pore size (P3) of the flow delaying pad is as follows: P1>P2>P3.

Disclosed herein is a method and apparatus for measuring biomedical data. The method of measuring biomedical data using a biochemical reaction includes determining reaction termination time at which the biochemical reaction has been stabilized based on an average variation in a predetermined period in an early stage of measurement, and obtaining a final measured value by adding a correction value to a value measured at the determined reaction termination time.
