Currently, glucose inspection sheets are roughly classified into the following two types according to the manufacturing process. (A) Impregnation type: A reagent composition comprising glucose oxidase, peroxidase, oxidizable indicator, and binder is dissolved or dispersed in water or a water-alcohol solvent.
Then, a glucose test sheet prepared by impregnating this solution with a filter paper, drying the filter paper, affixing the filter paper to the sheet, and cutting. (B) Printing type: A glucose test sheet obtained by printing on a support an ink in which a reagent composition comprising glucose oxidase, peroxidase, an oxidizable indicator and a binder is dissolved or dispersed in a solvent.

On the other hand, the printing type glucose test sheet of (b) replaces the impregnation, drying, and sticking process of the filter paper of the impregnating type with printing and drying of ink, which leads to mass production and cost reduction by simplifying the manufacturing process. Are better.

ジンは青い呈色を示す。In these glucose test sheets, the oxidizable indicator is an indicator which is oxidized by peroxidase to develop a color. Benzidines are widely known as examples of the oxidizable indicator. Of these, o-tolidine is particularly widely used because of its superior reactivity. And
In the presence of glucose, o-tolidine shows a blue color due to the oxidative action of the enzyme.

ながる。However, the glucose test sheet using this o-tolidine gradually turns yellow-brown when left in the atmosphere. As a result, the color tone of o-tolidine, which is colored blue as described above, is changed, and more specifically, the degree of yellowish brown hinders the reproducibility of coloration. The glucose test sheet is for diagnosing and managing sugar in body fluid, and such inhibition of reproducibility leads to erroneous determination.

ロール類は常温にて液性を示す。The cause of the above-mentioned yellowish brown color of the glucose test sheet is considered to be due to the fact that the oxide in the air acts on the oxidizable indicator, and it should be improved as a problem. As a solution to such a background, an antioxidant is conventionally added for the purpose of promoting stabilization of the oxidizable indicator. Examples of prominently used antioxidants include tocopherols. Tocopherols are liquid at room temperature.

However, in the above-mentioned manufacturing method, when the glucose test ink is applied onto the support and then dried, liquid tocopherols may remain. When such a situation occurs, the residual liquid component of the tocopherols added as an antioxidant of the oxidizable indicator has the drawback that it acts as a place for the oxidation reaction of the oxidizable indicator. .

る。DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made by focusing on the problem that the liquid antioxidant remains in the inspection sheet even after drying, and conversely promotes the oxidation reaction of the oxidizable indicator. Then, the problem is to provide a glucose test sheet that completely removes the liquid property in the glucose test sheet and is not discolored due to the oxidation action even when left in the atmosphere.
