大掛かりな機械器具を使用して実施されて来た。(2) Conventional technology It has been practiced for a long time to detect diseases early and to understand changes in pathological conditions through urine tests. Urine testing as a screening method has several advantages: it is easy to collect specimens, it reflects changes in the body, it can be used to compare diseases and changes in condition, and it can be detected even at an early stage. The method has the advantage that it is simple and does not require large-scale equipment. In conventional urine tests, urine is collected in a urine sample cup, and a piece of paper impregnated with a reagent is stretched over a plastic stick-shaped support that does not dissolve or disperse in water at all. Test equipment (
stick) is used. Alternatively, it has been carried out using liquid chemicals and large machinery.

所に捨てて処理することが心理的に困難である。現に水
洗便所を詰まらし、または詰まらされるおそれが大であ
る。That is, since the support part that forms the mount for the paper strip impregnated with the reagent is made of plastic, it is psychologically difficult to dispose of it by throwing it away in the toilet after use. In fact, there is a high risk that the flush toilet will be clogged or clogged.

ものと解される。)
なお、上記のような処理がとられる理由としては、前記
アンケート調査は、以下を示している。■そのままでは
汚いと考える。(におう、しみる、どこかへ付く、不衛
生C)■普通のごみとして捨てられないものと考える。According to a survey mainly conducted by the inventor, ■Put it in a plastic bag and then throw it away. 2. Most of the items were wrapped in toilet paper and then placed in a plastic bag before being thrown away. (The term "throw away" in ■ and ■ above is understood to mean discarding for incineration in urban areas.) The reason for the above-mentioned process is that , shows the following. ■I think it's dirty as it is. (It smells, stinks, sticks somewhere, is unsanitary C) ■Think of it as something that cannot be thrown away as regular garbage.
■当然のこと、エチケットと考える。■人目をはばかる
ためと考える。■便器に落としてはいけないと考える。■As a matter of course, think of it as etiquette. ■I think it's to hide from others. ■I think I shouldn't drop it into the toilet.
「尿」は、きれいなもの、というイメージは一般的には
ない。よって、「尿」の付着した使用済みのスティック
を処理する際、普通のごみとして扱われることはない。Urine is not generally seen as something clean. Therefore, when disposing of used sticks contaminated with urine, they are not treated as ordinary garbage.
(普通のごみとして取り扱われるとすれば、衛生上山々
しき問題となる。)つまり、試験紙を使用するにあたり
、使用後の“処理′というのは、些細なことであるかも
しれないが、考慮すべき重要なことであると思われなけ
ればならない。(If it were to be treated as ordinary garbage, it would be a huge hygienic problem.) In other words, when using test strips, "disposal" after use may be a trivial matter, but it should be taken into consideration. It must be seen as an important thing to do.
試験紙による尿試験を普及するにあたって、使用者が使
用しにくいものであれば、利用率が滞り、随時に行うこ
とが望ましい個別検尿や、セルフケア等の意義が著しく
損なわれる。In disseminating urine testing using test strips, if it is difficult for users to use, the usage rate will be low, and the significance of individual urine testing and self-care, which should be performed at any time, will be significantly impaired.

されるものである。(4) Means for Achieving the Object The urinalysis test strip of the present invention has a urinalysis reagent on a piece of paper that is easily dispersed in water but maintains its shape and strength for a while even if it gets wet. The test site is formed by impregnating the test site with a paper-only support.
(紙)本件特許明細書および請求項において、「紙」と
は主として植物繊維を取りだして、これを水の中に分散
させ、水の媒介によって、薄く、平らに絡み併せてすき
上げた後、乾燥させたものをいう。また「水に分散しや
すい性質」とは、例えばトイレットペーパーのように紙
の繊維が水に分解し易い特性、をいう。(Paper) In the patent specification and claims, "paper" mainly refers to plant fibers that are taken out, dispersed in water, tangled together thinly and flatly through the medium of water, and then raked up. It refers to something that has been dried. Furthermore, the term "property to easily disperse in water" refers to the property that paper fibers, such as those in toilet paper, are easily decomposed in water.
紙の主成分セルロース繊維は多数の分子が集合し、分子
間は水素結合で結ばれ、さらに部分的に結晶構造を形成
しているものである。Cellulose fiber, the main component of paper, is made up of a large number of molecules that are connected by hydrogen bonds, forming a partially crystalline structure.
紙は、この水素結合だけで強さの大部分を保っているた
めに、水分子の侵入によってその結合が破られると繊維
は水に分散してしまう。Paper maintains most of its strength solely through these hydrogen bonds, so if these bonds are broken by the intrusion of water molecules, the fibers will disperse into the water.
しかも、それは、いずれ、微生物の作用で分解されて水
と二酸化炭素になる。Moreover, it will eventually be decomposed by the action of microorganisms and become water and carbon dioxide.

概して、水に溶けやすく、従って、水洗便器系に詰まる
おそれは少ないが、水に濡れると、直ちに形状と強度を
失う傾向がある。In the case of Western paper, various chemical processes are often performed in processes other than the process of dispersing fibers. Even if it gets wet with water, it does not lose its shape or strength immediately, but it takes time for it to dissolve in water. Therefore, if it is poured into a flush toilet, there is a risk that the toilet system will become clogged. In the case of Japanese paper,
Generally, they are easily soluble in water and are therefore less likely to clog flush toilet systems, but they tend to quickly lose their shape and strength when wet.

るために望ましい。It is desirable that the paper used for the urinalysis test strip of the present invention maintains its shape and strength until the end of the test even if it gets wet with water, and has the property of being easily dispersed in condensed water. A property that maintains its shape and strength during the time required to complete the test even when wet with water is necessary for urine testing, and a property that dissolves in condensate water allows it to be disposed of in a toilet bowl or toilet. Desirable for processing.

きる。(Permeation Buffer) Each reagent applied to the urinalysis test strip of the present invention may ooze out around the test site due to the moisture in the urine. Therefore, when several types of reagents are impregnated onto the same piece of paper, there is a risk that they will mix with other reagents applied adjacently. In order to prevent this phenomenon, a substance that has the function of preventing, inhibiting, or buffering water from seeping out for a certain period of time may be impregnated between the test sites to which each reagent is applied. For example, wax may be used, such as wax wax, paraffin, etc., which may be heated and melted and soaked into the paper. The process may be made easier by forming linear recesses in the paper and pouring molten wax into the recesses. (In the specification and claims of this patent, this region is referred to as a permeable buffer zone.) If the permeable buffer zone is provided between the test region to which the reagent is applied and the end of the test paper, the user However, you can avoid staining your fingers with urine by pinching the ends.

A similar effect can be obtained by impregnating a rectangular piece of paper with a reagent in a substantially square shape from one end of the short side to the other, and providing a permeable buffer zone on the outside of the other two sides.

度を維持する性質への改良が認められた。Blotting paper is mostly pure cellulose fibers, but Disorbo ■ contains a lot of alpha-beta cellulose fibers that have been treated with polyvinyl alcohol. Therefore, when using a reagent, especially a protein reagent, the hydroxyl groups on the fiber bond with the substance in the reagent and stick to the dissolvo fiber, making it difficult to disperse in water. Therefore, we made a test paper similar to (a) using a new paper that mixed blotting paper and dissolvable fibers, which are easily dispersible in water, at the mixing ratio shown above. , an improvement in the property of maintaining its shape and strength for a while even when it gets wet with water was observed.
