Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for the non-invasive measurement of analytes in body fluids. It further relates to an apparatus for the non-invasive meas- urement of the presence or absence of analytes in body fluids.
  • analytes such as glucose in blood is traditionally carried out by extracting a blood sample from the body followed by the measurement of a particular analyte.
  • Non-invasive optical measurement of a body fluid analyte can be performed by directing a beam of light onto the body. The light is modified by the tissue after transmission through the target area. The content of the tissue will be optically fingerprinted by the diffuse light that escapes the tissue it has penetrated. The absorbance of light by any tissue depends on the chemical components in the tissue.
  • Infrared spectroscopy measures the electromagnetic radiation that a substance absorbs at various wavelengths.
  • the atoms constituting the molecules of the tissue are not stationary, but vibrate constantly. Absorption of light of the appropriate energy causes the molecule to become excited to a higher vibrational state.
  • the excitation of the molecule oc- curs only at certain discrete energy levels, which are characteristic for a particular molecule.
  • the penetration of light at these wavelength intervals typically is less than 100 ⁇ m. This penetration depth has proven to be impractical for measurements through the skin tissue, and therefore previously described techniques have not been successful due to the lack of light penetrating through the tissue.
  • some researchers have measured glucose in the aqueous humor of the eye. In the eye light travels through the cornea. The cornea is contrary to all other tissues translucent, and more importantly there is substantially no scattering of light in the cornea.
  • the aqueous humor of the eye is a limped liquid characterised by having a content of urea and glucose lower than in the blood plasma.
  • Vibrational spectra of molecules can also be obtained through Raman scattering.
  • J. Lambert et al. disclose a method for the in vitro measurement of glucose in a rabbit aqueous humor model using Raman spec- trometry.
  • Raman spectrometry is used to determine the characteristics of a particular scattering material (the incident light differs in absorption band from that of the substance).
  • J. Lambert et al. measured glucose levels by applying laser emitting light to the artificial aqueous humor.
  • the Raman spectrum for principal analytes of the aqueous humor were determined. These analytes were glucose, lactate, ascor- bate, and urea.
  • a major problem for spectral analysis in the mid-infrared range is the lack of suitable light sources.
  • compact lead salt diode lasers at this particular wavelength have become available on the market.
  • these lasers have to be cryo- genically cooled for operation.
  • quantum cascade (QC) lasers using conventional GaAs technology operating in the mid- infrared spectrum.
  • Quantum cascade lasers are increasingly used in experimental mid-infrared optical systems, replacing lead-salt diode lasers.
  • High power quantum cascade lasers operating at room temperature have been demonstrated by Namjou et al. (Opt. Lett. 23, 219, 1998).
  • the present invention presents a method of non-invasive measurement of a body fluid analyte using infra red and Raman spectrometry in the mid-infrared range.
  • the method is an improvement of the practical and frequent measurement of blood fluid analytes, and may be used by both private and professional individuals.
  • the inven- tion discloses a method of analyte measurement through a complex multi-layered tissue, such as the skin tissue, as opposed to prior art measurements in areas of significant anatomical difference to the skin tissue, such as the aqueous humor.
  • the present invention relates to a method for the non-invasive measurement of the presence or absence of at least one animal, including human, body fluid analyte, comprising the steps of:
  • the parameter is able to be correlated to the presence or absence of the at least one analyte
  • the invention describes an apparatus for the non-invasive measurement of the presence or absence of at least one animal, including human, body fluid analyte, comprising the means for:
  • the invention discloses the use of a method for the measurement of at least one animal, including human, body fluid analyte, and the use of an apparatus for the measurement of at least one animal, including human, body fluid analyte.
  • Fig.1 shows the visible absorption spectrum of a fingernail. The absorption is seen to decrease almost exponentially as a function of wavelength. A theoretical fit to the measured curve as an exponential decay predicts a value of the absorbance of 1.5 at a wavelength of 10 microns. The theoretical fit is also shown in the figure.
  • Fig. 2 shows a confocal Raman spectrum of the tissue through a fingernail.
  • the spectrum was recorded at a wavelength of 780 nm in order to avoid any excessive absorption or scattering at lower wavelengths.
  • Many of the absorption features of the spectra can be correlated with those found by Williams et al. ("Raman spectra of human keratotic biopolymers: Skin tissue, Callus, Hair and Nail", A. C. Williams, H. G. M. Edwards and B. W. Barry, Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, vol. 25, 95-98
  • Fig. 3 is a mid-infrared laser. This can be a tunable laser covering the wavelength range 9.2 to 10.7 microns.
  • the light from the laser is shone at the finger through the fingernail, which is shown stylistically as (3).
  • the laser passes through a beamsplitter (2), in order to gather the scattered light from the nail and the tissue below the nail.
  • (4) is a detector to detect the scattered light
  • (5) is an electronic processing and display unit.
  • Fig. 4 is a modification of the set-up shown in Fig. 1.
  • a polariser (6) is placed in the path of the incident beam and another polariser (7), whose direction of polarization is orthogonally oriented to (6).
  • light is detected at the same wavelength. All the polarised light resulting from scattering from the nail can be eliminated by the polariser (7) and only depolarised scattering from the tissue and blood can be detected at the detector (4).

  • a filter (8) is placed in the scattered light such that it only transmits those frequencies that are Raman shifted by the glucose molecules.
  • Fig. 6 is the same as Fig. 2 except the polariser (7) is mounted on rotation stage.
  • the rotation of the plane of incident radiation due to the glucose molecules can be detected.
  • Suitable precautions have to be taken in this case in order to eliminate the plane of rotation by other biologically active molecules, such as keratin, cholesterol etc.

  • the object of the present invention is to provide a method and an apparatus for the non-invasive measurement of a body fluid analyte.
  • the present invention is based on the fact that absorbances of analytes of a body fluid may be accessible through the skin tissue.
  • the method according to the invention for the non-invasive measurement of the presence or absence of at least one animal, including human, body fluid analyte comprises the steps of:

  • the parameter detected may be correlated to the presence or absence of the at least one analyte.
  • the parameters measured may be intensity, wavelength, and polarisation. Variations in intensity of the back scattered reflected light will be less due to scattering and absorption due to the constituent molecules in the tissue.
  • the scattered light may also occur at different wavelengths due to Raman scattering.
  • a change in the polarisation of the scattered light as well as a rotation of the plane of the incident polarised light may also occur due to fibres aligned in a particular direction in the tissue or due to the chirality of the molecules constituting the tissue, or due to an external magnetic field.
  • tissue is meant surface tissue, such as the skin tissue, nails, or mucosa. It does not cover volumes of fluid, such as the aqueous humor of the eye, nor artificial aqueous humor.

  • the irradiated tissue is at least one fingernail.
  • Nails are composed of keratin fibres more or less aligned parallel to the direction of growth.

  • the basis of at least one fingernail is irradiated.
  • the basis of the fingernail is thinner than the top of the fingernail, and therefore radiation directed towards the fingernail basis must travel a shorter distance before reaching the analyte in question, and the back scattered light may represent a more precise starting point for the analysis of the levels of the analyte.
  • tissue fibres of the invention are substantially parallel.
  • substantially parallel means that the fibres are aligned almost exclusively parallel.

  • the characteristic wavelengths at which measurements are performed are those of the analyte, water and keratin. These characteristics are important to determine due to the high content of water in body fluids and the composition of a nail for example as described above.
  • the finger(s) is placed in a device designed to accommodate the finger prior to irradiation. However, if the finger is not positioned correctly inside the device an alarm will go off. This may enable the person carrying out the measurement and may also ensure the correct measurement of the analyte in question.
