Description

Reduce the method for the influence of direct interference current in the electrochemical test bar
Invention field
The present invention relates generally to reduce the method for interfering compound to the influence of the measurement undertaken by analyte measuring system, more particularly, relate to the method that reduces the influence of direct interference current in the glucose monitoring system that uses electrochemical test bar, described electrochemical test bar has the electrode that uncoated area is arranged.
Background of invention
Under many circumstances, electrochemical measurement system can have the oxidation current that increases owing to the oxidation of interfering compound common in the physiological fluid, and described interfering compound is for example paracetamol, ascorbic acid, cholerythrin, dopamine, gentianic acid, glutathione, levodopa, ethyldopa, tolazamide, orinase and uric acid.Therefore, by that part of oxidation current that reduces or elimination is produced by interfering compound, the accuracy that can improve glucose meters.Ideal situation is, the oxidation current that should not produce by any interfering compound, and whole like this oxidation current only depends on concentration of glucose.
Therefore, wish to improve at possible interfering compound for example in physiological fluid in the presence of common ascorbate, urate and the paracetamol accuracy of electrochemical sensor.For such electrochemical sensor, the example of analyte can comprise glucose, lactate and fructosamine.Though glucose is the main analyte of being discussed, it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that the present invention also can be used for other analyte.
Oxidation current can produce by several approach.Particularly, desired oxidation current is produced by the interaction of redox mediators with the analyte of being paid close attention to (for example glucose), and the oxidation current of not expecting is produced by the interfering compound oxidized with the interaction of redox mediators oxidized at electrode surface and that pass through usually.For example, some interfering compound (for example paracetamol) is oxidized at electrode surface.Other interfering compound (for example ascorbic acid) is by oxidized with the chemical reaction of redox mediators.In the glucose measurement system, the oxidation of interfering compound causes that concentration that the oxidation current of measurement had both depended on glucose also depends on the concentration of any interfering compound.Therefore, at interfering compound with the efficient oxidation same with glucose, and with respect to concentration of glucose, when the concentration of interfering compound was high, the measurement of concentration of glucose can improve to the contribution of total oxidation current by reducing or eliminating interfering compound.
A known strategy that reduces the influence of interfering compound is to use electronegative film to cover working electrode.As an example, can use for example NAFION of sulfonation fluorinated polymer TMRepel all electronegative chemical substances.Generally speaking, most of interfering compound for example ascorbate and urate has negative charge, and therefore, electronegative film stops electronegative interfering compound to arrive electrode surface and oxidized on electrode surface.Yet for example paracetamol is not electronegative owing to some interfering compound, thereby and can pass through electronegative film, so this technology always the success.This technology can not reduce the oxidation current that the interaction owing to interfering compound and some redox mediators produces.For example the ferricyanide comes by electronegative film and electrode carries out electron exchange to use electronegative film also can stop some redox mediators commonly used on working electrode.
Another strategy that can be used for reducing the influence of interfering compound is to use the size Selection film at the working electrode top.As an example, can with 100 dalton's size exclusion films for example acetyl cellulose film cover working electrode, to get rid of molecular weight greater than 100 daltonian all chemical substances.The molecular weight of most of interfering compound is greater than 100 dalton, therefore is excluded and can not be oxidized on electrode.Yet such selection film makes that usually the manufacturing of test-strips is more complicated, and because the glucose of oxidation must increase Measuring Time by selecting film diffusion to arrive electrode.
Another strategy that can be used for reducing the influence of interfering compound is to use the redox mediators with suboxides reduction potential, for example oxidation-reduction potential for pact-300mV extremely+redox mediators of 100mV (when measuring) about saturated calomel electrode.Because redox mediators has the suboxides reduction potential, the voltage that imposes on working electrode also can be lower, and this has reduced interfering compound by the speed of working electrode oxidation.The example that has than the redox mediators of suboxides reduction potential comprises osmium bipyridyl complexes, ferrocene derivatives and quinone derivative.This tactful shortcoming is, the redox mediators that has than the suboxides reduction potential often is difficult to synthesize, and is unstable and have a low water solubility.
Another strategy that can be used for reducing the influence of interfering compound is to use the pseudo electrode that has been coated with redox mediators.In some cases, can also be with the oxidoreducing enzyme of pseudo electrode with inert protein or inactivation.The purpose of pseudo electrode is the redox mediators of the disturbed compound reduction of oxidation interfering compound and/or oxidation on electrode surface.In this strategy, will from total oxidation current of measuring at working electrode, deduct at the electric current of measuring on the pseudo electrode, to eliminate disturbing effect.This tactful shortcoming is that it needs test-strips to comprise can not be used to measure the other electrode of glucose and other electrical connection (being pseudo electrode).Comprise that pseudo electrode is to use electrode in the glucose measurement system inefficiently.
