Development of glucometer based on ferrocene-mediated enzyme electrode / 医疗卫生装备

ABSTRACT

A portable glucometer is developed with ferrocene as an electron mediator, which is characterized by being easy to operate and portable with the small size of 94.3mm?49.2mm?17.8mm. With this meter, the detection result can be available in no more than 20 seconds with about 1.5?l of blood drawn. The meter has a measurement range from 50mg/dl to 500mg/dl and a precision of 1mg/dl. The measurements are compared with the ones from USI 2300 Stat Plus approved by FDA. The coefficient of variation is from 3.0% to 7.8%, and the availability of linear relationship (y=1.006x-1.37, r=0.990, n=1.18) and comparability are demonstrated. Error table analysis proves that all of measurements are in the acceptable A and B sections. The meter is a validated diagnostic system for in vitro blood glocuse.
