Definitions
- the present invention is concerned with a reagent for the determination of blood sugar by the o-toluidine method, which reagent does not contain glacial acetic acid.
- isophthalic acid and terephthalic acid are useless for weight, based on total weight of composition.
- the two above-mentioned glacial acetic acid-free reagents overcome the problem of malodor and also somewhat improve the sensitivity of the test.
- This sensitivity is, in the case of the usual normal values for the blood sugar content in whole blood of 60 100 mg. percent, below the value ofE 0.100 at the measurement wavelength of 578 nm usually employed.
- a further disadvantage of the two above-mentioned known reagents is the instability of the solvent mixture which is due to the content of readily volatile components.
- the increased evaporation rate is of significance because the reagent must be heated for 8 minutes in a boiling waterbath for the development of the coloration.
- the dissolved substances start to crystallize out.
- phthalic acid is an outstanding catalyst for An especially preferred composition consists of 0.075 0.15 percent by weight thiourea, 20 25 percent by weight phthalic acid, 35 55 percent by weight dimethyl formamide, 20 40percent by weight ethylene glycol mono-lower alkyl ether and 7.5 10 percent by weight o-toluidine, based on total weight of composition.
- lower alkly is to be understood to mean an alkyl radical containing up to six carbon atoms.
- the reagent according to the present invention can contain up to about 5 percent water, without its usefulness being thereby impaired.
- the reagent according to the present invention does not result in any unpleasant smell nor is there any danger of a loss of solvent when heating in order to bring about formation of the colored material.
- the reagent is colorless to pale yellow in color and the viscosity is low so that there is no impairment of the pipetting due to air bubbles or after-runnings.
- the reagent is also storage stable although, in the case of comparatively long periods of storage at an elevated temperature (33 C. an intensification of the yellow color can occur. However, this influences neither the measurement sensitivity to any considerable extent nor the stability of the color formed.
- FIG. 1 is a plot extinction values against glucose concentration
- the superior sensitivity of the reagent according to the present invention is of great practical importance since it is hereby possible, even in the cases of hypoglycaemia, as well as in the cases in which only very little blood is available, i.e., in the case of blood sugar measurement values of 30 50 mg. percent, to obtain extinctions of the order of 0.050 to 0.082 at 578 nm, measured against a blank, so that errors of measurement in the reading off of the photometer are very considerably reduced.
- a further advantage of the reagent according to the present invention lies in the fact that in the region of the especially preferred composition, it represents a so-called optimum composition. This means that all individual components of the mixture are present in the concentration in which the sensitivity, the period of incubation of the test and the stability of the resultant color have their maxima and a slight alteration of the conditions does not cause any significant differences in the course of the test or in the measurement operation. The working errors are, therefore, in the case of this composition, extremely low.
- the color which arises in the case of the o-toluidine reaction is, in principle, unstable. It is assumed that an unknown secondary reaction follows by means of which the extinction at 640 nm, the maximum, and at the measurement wavelength of 578 nm, decreases in the course of time. This instability of the color is reduced in the case of the reagent according to the had at ambient temperature at the end of the incubation.
- glycollic acid reagent was used as comparison reagent.
- superior stability of the reagent according to the present invention This improvement represents an important advantage when a large series of tests are to be measured one after the other.
- a further advantage of the reagent according to the present invention lies in the fact that the stability is independent of the glucose concentration in the sample. The possibilities of error of the method are hereby minimized.
- a further advantage of the reagent according to the present invention is its cheapness.
- the cost of phthalic acid is only about one-ninth of the cost of glycollic acid.
- Example 1 ml. ethylene glycol monoethyl ether were then added thereto and finally 18.0 ml. o-toluidine was stirred in.
- 0.1 ml. of blood was pipetted into 1.0 ml. 3 percent trichloroacetic acid, mixed and, after standing for a few minutes, centrifuged.
- Areagent composition for determination of blood sugar which composition comprises o-toluidine, thiourea, an ethylene glycol mono-lower alkyl ether, phthalic acid, and dimethyl formamide as a solubilizing agent.
