Definitions
- This invention relates to a diagnostic device that has an insulating pattern scored into a conductive coating on the device to facilitate analytical measurements; more particularly, to monitor filling of the device.
- a variety of medical diagnostic procedures involve tests on biological fluids, such as blood, urine, or saliva, to determine an analyte concentration in the fluid.
- the procedures measure a variety of physical parameters - mechanical, optical, electrical, etc., - of the biological fluid.
- glucose a compound that has been used extensively in clinical laboratories, physicians' offices, hospitals, and homes to test samples of biological fluids for glucose concentration.
- reagent strips have become an everyday necessity for many of the nation's estimated 16 million people with diabetes. Since diabetes can cause dangerous anomalies in blood chemistry, it can contribute to vision loss, kidney failure, and other serious medical consequences. To minimize the risk of these consequences, most people with diabetes must test themselves periodically, then adjust their glucose concentration accordingly, for instance, through diet, exercise, and/or insulin injections. Some patients must test their blood glucose concentration as often as four times or more daily.
- the reagent generally includes an enzyme, such as glucose oxidase or glucose dehydrogenase, and a redox mediator, such as ferrocene or ferricyanide.
- an enzyme such as glucose oxidase or glucose dehydrogenase
- a redox mediator such as ferrocene or ferricyanide.
- the metallized layers constitute first and second electrodes, and a cutout in the adhesive-coated layer defines an electrochemical cell.
- the cell contains the reagent that reacts with the glucose in a blood sample.
- the device is elongated, and the sample is introduced at an inlet on one of the long sides .
- Yoshioka et al . U.S. Pat. 5,264,103, issued on November 23, 1993, discloses a biosensor for electrochemically measuring concentration of an analyte, such as glucose, in a biological fluid. An impedance change indicates that a sufficient supply of sample has been supplied to the sensor.
- This invention provides a medical diagnostic device for measuring an analyte concentration of an electrically conductive biological fluid.
- the device comprises a multilayer structure having a first layer and a second layer sandwiching an intermediate layer, a) the first and second layers each comprising an insulating sheet, having a conductive surface adjoining the intermediate layer, b) the intermediate layer being an insulating layer with a cutout, having a first end and a second end, which, together with the first and second layers, defines a flow channel to permit the sample to flow from the first end to the second end, c) the flow channel comprising (i) a dry reagent on the conductive surface of one of the layers, for reacting with the sample to yield a change in an electrical parameter that can be related to the analyte concentration of the fluid, and
- a method for preparing an electrically conductive pattern of the present invention comprises passing a web of a conductive-coated flexible insulator between a cutting die and anvil, in which the cutting die has a cutting element that is raised a height greater than the thickness of the conductive coating for scoring through preselected portions of the conductive coating.

- This invention relates to an electrochemical method of measuring an analyte concentration of an electrically conductive biological fluid.
- the description below emphasizes amperometrically measuring glucose concentration in samples of whole blood; however, the person of ordinary skill in the medical diagnostics art will recognize how the description can be adapted to measure other analytes (such as cholesterol, ketone bodies, alcohol, etc.) in other fluids (such as saliva, urine, interstitial fluid, etc. )
- the electrochemical (amperometric) method for measuring an analyte concentration in an aqueous sample involves placing the sample into an electrochemical cell that has at least two electrodes and an impedance that is suitable for the amperometric measurement.
- the analyte is allowed to react directly with an electrode or with a redox reagent to form an oxidizable (or reducible) substance in an amount that corresponds to the analyte concentration.
- the quantity of oxidizable (or reducible) substance is then determined electrochemically.
- Fig. 1 is an exploded view of an embodiment of multilayer device 10.
- Top insulating sheet 12 has an electrically conductive surface 14, which is typically a metal, plated on a surface of insulating sheet 12 by vacuum deposition, sputtering, electroplating, or any other suitable method for providing a conductive surface, well known in the art.
- Scored line 16 extends through the thickness of surface 14, to provide a gap in the conductive path across the width of the device.
- Intermediate insulating layer 18 is sandwiched between conductive surface 14 of top insulating sheet 12 and conductive surface 20 of bottom insulating sheet 22.
- Intermediate layer 18 is preferably a thermoplastic sheet with adhesive on both surfaces for adhering to. sheets 12 and 22.
- Conductive surface 20 is typically a metal plated on sheet 22 by one of the methods mentioned earlier.
- Cutout 30 in intermediate layer 18 provides - between conductive-coated sheets 12 and 22 - inlet 32, outlet 34, and the electrochemical cell 36 that lies between the inlet and outlet .
- An optional serration 17 in scored line 16 enhances flow from inlet 32 to outlet 34, by a mechanism that is described later.
- a dry reagent consisting of buffer, mediator, and enzyme, is deposited on conductive surface 20 and/or, 14.
- Electrochemical cell 36 is the region within which is measured an electrical parameter of the fluid/reagent combination.
- the region in which the reagent is coated generally, but not necessarily, corresponds to the cell 36. For simplicity, that correspondence is assumed in the description below.
- the reagent and electrochemical cell 36 may be limited to the region between insulating line 16 and the inlet 32. Alternatively, the reagent coating (and cell) may extend over the entire cutout region between the edges of the device.
- Fig. 2 is a plan view of another embodiment of the device of Fig. 1.
- the device 10' of Fig. 2 includes a second scored line 16A, in from the other longitudinal edge of cond ctive surface 14.
- Score lines 16 and 16A divide conductive surface 14 into three regions - 14A, 14B, and 14C - each insulated from the other two.
- score lines 16 and 16A have serrations 40 and 40A, respectively, that form angles, whose vertices "point" to both edges of the device. The serrations are provided to enhance flow through channel 30 in both directions, as described below.
- a discontinuity in channel cross section can form a "stop junction, " which can stop the fluid flow, as described in U.S. Patents 4,426,451; 5,230,866; and 5,912,134, incorporated herein by reference.
- Score lines 16 and 16A create such cross section discontinuities.
- the stop junction results from surface tension that creates a back pressure that stops the fluid meniscus from proceeding through the discontinuity.
- the stop junction is weakened, and flow thereby enhanced, when the leading edge of the meniscus encounters the vertex of an acute angle and is then stretched along the arms of the angle. This may be described as the angle "pointing" in a direction opposite to the direction of fluid flow. This process may be better understood by reference to Figs. 3A, 3B, and 3C.
- Fig. 3A depicts the action of the stop junction when the serration is absent.
- the fluid (flowing left-to- right in the figure) is stopped at score line 16.
- a serration in score line 16 (such as serration 17 in Fig. 1) serves to weaken the stop junction and facilitates flow through the scored region.
- serration 17 would weaken the stop junction, and thereby facilitate fluid flow in both directions through capillary channel 30, the effect is not the same for both directions.
- Figs. 3B and 3C show the fluid before and just after the meniscus breaks through a stop junction having serrations whose vertices point in opposite directions
- Fig. 4 is a cross section along the line 4-4 of Fig. 2.
- score lines 16 and 16A interrupt conductive surface 14 and extend into insulating sheet 12.
- Conductive surface 14 is typically gold
- conductive surface 20 is typically palladium, but each may alternatively be any other conductive material that does not react with the reagent or sample and that can be applied to an insulating surface. Suitable materials include tin oxide, platinum, iridium, stainless steel, and carbon.
- the thickness of the coating should at least be sufficient to provide adequate conductivity - generally, about 10 ohms per square, or less.
- Gold coatings are typically about 10 - 20 nm, palladium typically about 20 - 40 nm.
- the conductive coatings preferably have a hydrophilic overcoating to enhance filling when channel 30 is a capillary channel.
- the overcoat must adhere to the conductive coating but not react with the sample fluid.
- Insulating sheets 12 and 22 may be any suitable thermoplastic sheet, such as polyester, polyethylene, polypropylene, polycarbonate, polyimide, etc. Polyester of about 0.2 mm thickness is suitable and inexpensive.
- a fill-detection device 10' of the type shown in Fig. 2 has available four discrete electrodes - 14A, 14B, 14C, and 20.
- an electrochemical meter could, in principle, measure the current or voltage output across six different electrode pairs - 14A, 20; 14B, 20; 14C, 20; 14A, 14B; 14B, 14C; and 14A, 14C.
- a meter periodically (e.g., every 0.1 second) measures the voltages (at constant current) across 14A, 20 and 14C, 20. In that way, the meter detects sample entry and identifies which side of channel 30 the sample is entering.
- 14A, 14B, and 14B, 14C could be monitored to detect partial filling of channel 30.
- the time at which the cell has filled is determined as described above.
- Another alternative for monitoring partial filling is to just measure voltage 14B, 20. That alternative requires less switching and simple controls . By not requiring very rapid switching there may also be a cost saving.
- the time at which the cell has filled is then signaled by a drop in voltage 14A, 14C. More generally, changes in current or voltage across one or more of the pairs can be used to track the progress of sample into and through the cell. Of course, if only a single score is used (as shown in Fig.
- FIG. 5 depicts a block diagram that shows circuitry which can accomplish the fill detection described above.
- a constant current source (101) is applied to one of the electrode pair combinations, using switches 105 and 106. With no sample on the strip, the resistances between all six electrode pairs are very large, and the current passing through the strip is negligible.
- the output voltage of voltage buffer 104 (V) is high in this condition. When sample bridges the gap of a monitored pair, the resistance and voltage drop significantly. V then is fed to microcontroller 104 through analog-to- digital converter 103. Microcontroller 104, recognizing this reduced voltage as sample detection, switches 105 and 106 to probe one of the other electrode pairs, to confirm that the cell is filled.
- Fig. 6 is an exploded perspective view of an alternative embodiment of a device of this invention, in which sample is applied to the end, rather than side, of the device.
- Top layer 112 has a coating 114 of a conductor, such as gold, on its underside.
- the coating has insulating line 116 scored into the surface, and serration 140 in score line 116 facilitates flow of sample into channel 130 of insulating layer 118.
- Bottom layer 122 has a coating 120 of palladium, or other conductor. Electrical contact with coating 120 is made through access hole 142 in top layer 112 and gap 144 in insulating layer 118. Electrical contact with coating 114 is made through openings 146 in bottom layer 122 and gap 144 in insulating layer 118.
- Electrochemical cell 136 is formed by channel 130 and the metal-coated top and bottom layers. Note that after the device is assembled, through-hole 148 is punched through all three layers to provide a vent in top layer 112 to permit filling of channel 130 and to provide a stop junction at the distal end of the channel (where hole 148 is cut into insulating layer 118) . At the same time, the proximal (open) end of the channel is cut, together with the adjoining ends of layers 112 and 122. The two cuts, made simultaneously in the assembled layers, provide accurate and reproducible channel length, which in turn permits accurate and reproducible measurements .
- a device of the type described above can use a glucose oxidase (GOD) /ferricyanide system to determine glucose concentrations via the following reactions, in which GOD* is the reduced enzyme. Reaction 1 glucose + GOD -> gluconic acid + GOD*
- Ferricyanide [Fe(CN) 6 ] 3"
- GOD an enzyme catalyst
- Ferrocyanide [Fe(CN) ⁇ l 4 ⁇ ) is the product of the total reaction. Ideally, there is no ferrocyanide initially, although in practice there is often a small quantity. After the reaction is complete, the concentration of ferrocyanide (measured electrochemically) indicates the initial concentration of glucose.
- the total reaction, reaction 3, is the sum of reactions 1 and 2.
- Glucose refers specifically to ⁇ -D-glucose.
- a second embodiment of the present invention is a method for providing an electrically-conductive pattern on a conductive-coated flexible insulator, such as sheet 12 of Fig. 2.
- An apparatus for preparing a pattern such as that designated 16 and 16A in conductive coating 14 is depicted in Fig. 7.
- web 42 ,- comprising conductive coating 44 on flexible insulator 46 passes between anvil 48 and cutting die 50 to score selected areas of coating 44.
- the knife regions of die 50 are raised a height h, greater than the thickness of coating 44, so that the cut areas become insulating regions in the coating. However, the knife regions should not be raised so high that the mechanical strength of insulator 46 is undermined.
- the knife height h is about one thousand to ten thousand times the thickness of coating 44, depending on the uniformity and precision of the tooling for cutting.
- anvil 48 and cutting die 50 are rollers that the web passes between.
