Definitions
- the present invention relates to the technical field of systems for the rapid analysis of biological samples, intended for the detection of the presence of at least one analyte in said biological sample.
- a rapid diagnostic test is a test that can quickly establish (within minutes) the presence of at least one analyte of interest in a biological sample.
- This technique has the advantage of being simple, fast and inexpensive. Such tests can also be used in the doctor's office but also at the patient's bedside or in the field.
- the strip is conventionally implanted in a case which is adapted to receive only biological samples in liquid form.
- the present invention provides a system for the rapid analysis of a biological sample, intended for the detection of the presence of at least one analyte in said biological sample.
- the rapid analysis system includes:
- At least one sampling device suitable for taking said biological sample (possibly from an individual), for example a biological sample from the upper respiratory tract or a capillary blood sample,
- At least one chromatographic strip advantageously an immunochromatographic strip, designed to detect the presence of said at least one analyte, which at least one chromatographic strip comprises a deposition zone intended to receive said biological sample,
- At least one interface device adapted to receive said at least one chromatographic strip for the implementation of said chromatographic technique.
- the interface device comprises at least two housings in fluid communication (possibly only two housings), advantageously in the form of a well, with:
- At least a first housing (advantageously a first single housing) intended to receive at least said buffer solution, optionally mixed with said biological sample, and
- At least one second housing (advantageously a single second housing or at least two second housing) designed to introduce at least said deposit zone of said at least one chromatographic strip, said second housing being intended to receive said buffer solution, optionally mixed with said biological sample, flowing from said at least one first housing.
- Such a device also prevents accidental projection of buffer solution and / or biological sample onto an area of the chromatographic strip other than the deposition area.
- At least two housings each have an access opening and a bottom, which bottoms of said at least two housings are in fluid communication;
- At least two housings are in fluid communication via a conduit suitable for a flow of the buffer solution, optionally mixed with said biological sample, from said first housing to said second housing;
- the conduit advantageously has a lower face having a downward slope from said first housing to said second housing, to promote the flow of the buffer solution, optionally mixed with said biological sample from said first housing to said second housing;
- said at least one first housing comprises a side wall which has a section which decreases from an access opening towards a bottom, for example a frustoconical portion preferably followed by a final cylindrical portion;
- Said at least one second housing is shaped to guide the introduction of said at least one chromatographic strip;
- the length of the chromatographic strip is greater than the depth of said at least one second housing, so as to give said chromatographic strip a configuration erected on either side of an access opening;
- said at least one interface device comprises a bottom face, adapted to rest on a receiving surface, and an opposite top face, and said at least two housings of said at least one interface device are in the form of juxtaposed wells, advantageously parallel, and opening at said top face;
- said at least one sampling device comprises a collection part suitable for collecting said biological sample;
- said at least one first housing is adapted to the introduction of said collecting part of said at least one sampling device so that the buffer solution ensures the transfer of said biological sample from said at least one first housing to said at least one second housing ;
- said at least one first housing comprises a side wall provided with a compression part whose section is identical to, or smaller than, the collection part, which compression part is preferably cylindrical and located on the bottom side;
- said at least one sampling device is chosen from saliva sampling swabs or nasal sampling swabs, or lancets, suitable for generating a drop of capillary blood;
- Said at least one first housing comprises a side wall in which is formed at least one groove, for example of spiral or helical shape, extending towards a bottom to promote the flow of the buffer solution, where appropriate mixed with said biological sample, towards said bottom;
- At least one of the housings comprises a side wall provided with an annular lumen in fluid communication with an internal chamber, said annular lumen being advantageously located between a free edge of said side wall and a bottom, to avoid or at least limit a liquid outlet through said housings in the event of tilting of said interface device;
- said at least one interface device is made of a plastic material, advantageously in two assembled parts;
- said at least one chromatographic strip comprises different successive zones, in the direction of capillary migration upstream to downstream, namely at least said deposition zone, intended to receive the buffer solution / biological sample mixture, a release zone which comprises at least a detection reagent conjugated with a visible and / or measurable label, said detection reagent being able to move as a consequence of the migration of the buffer solution along the chromatographic strip, and at least one capture zone which includes at least one capture reagent, immobilized on the chromatographic strip;
- Said at least one chromatographic strip consists of a chromatographic strip designed to detect the presence of said at least one analyte chosen from antigens, or serological antibodies, specific for an infectious agent, preferably viruses, in particular viruses responsible for pneumopathies , advantageously the Coronaviridae, more preferably Orthocoronavirinae or coronavirus;
- the buffer solution is packaged in a container which includes a dropper;
- the rapid analysis system comprises one lot [sampling device / chromatographic strip / interface device], for an individual analysis, or several lots [sampling device / chromatographic strip / interface device], for a collective analysis ;
- At least one strip is packaged in collective packaging, and said at least one sampling device is packaged in individual packaging;
- the rapid analysis system comprises at least two of said chromatographic strips, advantageously designed to each detect the presence of said at least one analyte, different from each other, and said at least one interface device comprising said at least a first housing, preferably a single first housing, and at least two second housings each designed to introduce at least said deposition zone of at least one of said chromatographic strips.
- the present invention further relates to an interface device for a rapid analysis system according to the invention.
- the interface device comprises at least two housings in fluid communication (preferably only two housings), preferably in the form of a well, with:
- At least a first housing intended to receive at least one buffer solution, optionally mixed with a biological sample
- At least one second housing (for example one, two, three or four second housing (s)) designed for the introduction of a deposition zone of a chromatographic strip.
- the present invention also relates to a method for the rapid analysis of a biological sample, from a rapid analysis system according to the invention.
- This process includes:
- the biological sample is deposited directly on the deposition zone of the chromatographic strip, before said insertion step.
- the insertion step also comprises an insertion of the collection part of said at least one sampling device in said first housing
- the step of adding the buffer solution leads to bringing said buffer solution into contact with said collection part of said at least one sampling device positioned in said first housing (with advantageously a movement of said at least one sampling device to promote the flow of the buffer solution / biological sample mixture), to ensure the transfer of said biological sample from said at least one sampling device to said at least one chromatographic strip.
- the biological sample is preferably chosen from biological samples from the upper respiratory tract, for example a nasopharyngeal or salivary sample or a capillary blood sample.
