Description

本発明は、尿中のウロビリノーゲンと試薬との呈色反応による試薬部の色の変化を光学的に測定する定性分析において尿中ウロビリノーゲンの偽陽性反応を判定する判定方法及び同判定方法を用いた定性分析装置に関する。   The present invention uses a determination method and a determination method for determining a false positive reaction of urinary urobilinogen in a qualitative analysis for optically measuring a change in color of a reagent portion due to a color reaction between urinary urobilinogen and a reagent. The present invention relates to a qualitative analyzer.

従来から、病院等では、尿に含まれる各種成分を分析し、その分析結果から患者の健康状態を判断するために、患者から尿を採取して、これを分析することが行われている。
尿の分析は、大きく分けて定性分析、定量分析及び沈査分析という3種類の分析方法がある。
尿の定性分析は、尿中に特定の成分が存在しているか否かを判断するための分析である。具体的には、定性分析は、被検出物質と呈色反応する試薬部が設けられた試験紙を、試験管の中の検体に浸漬させたり、前記試験紙の試薬部に検体を点着したりする等した後、呈色反応により変化した後の試薬部の色を、反射光度法等の光学的手法により測定する定性分析装置を用いて行われる。
出願人は、前記定性分析装置として、尿を採取したハルンカップから直接、試験紙の試薬部に尿の点着を行い、尿を点着した後の試薬部の呈色反応による色の変化を光学的に測定する定性分析装置を既に提案している(特許文献1)。
出願人が特許文献1で提案した定性分析装置は、複数の試験紙を収容する試験紙保管装置を備え、この試験紙保管装置から試験紙を一枚ずつ取り出し、始めに尿点着位置に移送し、点着後の試験紙を光学測定位置に移送し、測定後の試験紙を廃棄部に移送するように構成されている。この定性分析装置では、光学測定位置において、尿中の特定成分と呈色反応した後の試薬部の色を測定することができるように試験紙を移送するタイミングが決められている。
特許文献1に示す定性分析装置のように、従来の定性分析装置は、検体中の物質と呈色反応した後の試薬部の色を測定するように構成されている。
しかしながら、試薬部の試薬の呈色反応後の色は、必ずしも目的とする被検出物質と一対一の関係にはならず、被検出物質以外の偽反応物質との反応によっても、呈色反応後の色が同一又は類似の色になることがある。
例えば、尿に含まれる偽反応物質による応答は、被検出物質の応答とは、応答速度が異なるが、従来の定性分析装置は、上記したように、検体中の物質と呈色反応した後の試薬部の色を測定するように構成されているため、偽反応物質による応答か、目的とする被検出物質による応答かを判断することはできない。
出願人は、上記した従来の問題点に鑑みて、偽反応物質による応答か、目的とする被検出物質による応答かを判断する定性分析装置を提案した(特許文献2)。
2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in hospitals and the like, various components contained in urine are analyzed, and urine is collected from the patient and analyzed in order to determine the health condition of the patient from the analysis result.
There are three types of analysis of urine analysis: qualitative analysis, quantitative analysis and sedimentation analysis.
The qualitative analysis of urine is an analysis for determining whether or not a specific component is present in urine. Specifically, in the qualitative analysis, a test paper provided with a reagent part that performs a color reaction with a substance to be detected is immersed in a specimen in a test tube, or a specimen is spotted on the reagent part of the test paper. Or the like, followed by using a qualitative analyzer that measures the color of the reagent part after the color reaction has changed by an optical technique such as a reflection photometry.
The applicant, as the qualitative analyzer, spotted urine directly on the reagent part of the test paper directly from the Harun cup from which urine was collected, and optically measured the color change due to the color reaction of the reagent part after the urine was spotted. Has already proposed a qualitative analysis device for automatic measurement (Patent Document 1).
The qualitative analysis device proposed by the applicant in Patent Document 1 is provided with a test paper storage device that accommodates a plurality of test papers. The test paper is taken out from the test paper storage device one by one and first transferred to the urine spotting position. The test paper after spotting is transferred to the optical measurement position, and the test paper after measurement is transferred to the disposal unit. In this qualitative analyzer, the timing for transferring the test paper is determined so that the color of the reagent part after color reaction with a specific component in urine can be measured at the optical measurement position.
Like the qualitative analyzer shown in Patent Document 1, the conventional qualitative analyzer is configured to measure the color of the reagent part after color reaction with the substance in the specimen.
However, the color after the color reaction of the reagent in the reagent part does not necessarily have a one-to-one relationship with the target substance to be detected. May be the same or similar colors.
For example, the response due to the pseudo-reactive substance contained in urine is different in response speed from the response of the substance to be detected. However, as described above, the conventional qualitative analyzer has a color reaction with the substance in the specimen as described above. Since it is configured to measure the color of the reagent part, it cannot be determined whether the response is due to a false reaction substance or a target detection target substance.
In view of the above-described conventional problems, the applicant has proposed a qualitative analysis device that determines whether the response is due to a pseudo-reactive substance or the target detected substance (Patent Document 2).

The image captured by the optical measuring unit 2 is sent to the image processing unit 3, and the image processing storage unit 3 uses the captured image to detect the red component (red reflectance) and the green component (green reflectance) of the reagent unit 1 a. And the blue component (blue reflectance) are calculated and stored.
The determination unit 4 calculates the ratio of the blue component and the green component after the completion of the color reaction based on the color information of the reagent unit stored in the image processing storage unit 3, and based on the ratio, the urine urobilinogen is positive The reaction and the false positive reaction are discriminated, and the determination result is output to the output unit 5 including a printer, a monitor and the like.

以下、上記したように構成された尿定性分析装置の作用について簡単に説明していく。

前記判定部4は、必要に応じて、尿が点着される前の試薬部1aの色の赤成分(赤反射率)、緑成分(緑反射率)及び青成分(青反射率)に基づいて、尿の点着後の画像から得られる色情報を補正して判定をするように構成することができる。
The operation of the urine qualitative analyzer configured as described above will be briefly described below.
The optical measurement unit 2 captures an image of the reagent unit 1a before urine is spotted. The image is sent to the image processing storage unit 3, and the image processing storage unit 3 extracts the red component (red reflectance) and the green component (green reflectance) of the color of the reagent unit 1 a before urine is spotted from the image. ) And the blue component (blue reflectance) are calculated and stored.
When urine is spotted on the reagent part 1a, the optical measuring part 2 images the reagent part 1a after the completion of the color reaction (34 seconds in this embodiment), and in each case, the image processing storage part 3 Send.
The image processing storage unit 3 calculates and stores the red component (red reflectance), green component (green reflectance), and blue component (blue reflectance) of the color of the reagent unit 1a from the sent image.
The determination unit 4 calculates the ratio of the blue component and the green component after completion of the color reaction based on the color information of the reagent unit stored in the image processing storage unit 3, and based on the calculated value, the urinary urobilinogen A positive reaction and a false positive reaction are discriminated, and a determination result is output to the output unit 5 including a printer, a monitor, and the like.
Specifically, the determination unit 4 determines a false positive reaction when the calculated ratio of the blue component and the green component is higher than 0.85 to 1.0, and outputs the determination result via the output unit 5. .
In addition, since there is a region in which some of the positive and false positives are mixed, it is possible to set the gray region as 0.85 to 1.0 and set 1.0 or higher as false positive and 0.85 or lower as false positive.
The determination unit 4 is based on the red component (red reflectance), green component (green reflectance), and blue component (blue reflectance) of the color of the reagent unit 1a before urine is spotted, if necessary. Thus, the determination can be made by correcting the color information obtained from the urine spotted image.

上記した実施例では、点着した後、34秒後に試薬部の色を測定し、測定結果に基づいて判定を行っているが、測定タイミングは本実施例に限定されることなく、呈色反応が終了した後であれば34秒後でなくてもよく、たとえば、60秒後であってもよい。
また、本実施例で設定した0.85〜1.0という値はこれに限定されるものではなく、測定系により変更し得る。
In the above-described embodiment, the color of the reagent portion is measured 34 seconds after spotting, and determination is performed based on the measurement result. However, the measurement timing is not limited to this embodiment, and the color reaction If it is after ending, it may not be 34 seconds later, for example, 60 seconds later.
Further, the value of 0.85 to 1.0 set in the present embodiment is not limited to this and can be changed depending on the measurement system.
