LACTATE DEHYDROGENASE DETECTOR

摘要

A lactate dehydrogenase detector, which is used to detect a content of lactate dehydrogenase in a biological sample, comprises a substrate, an electrode assembly, a hydrophobic insulation layer, a cover and a reagent-containing membrane. The electrode assembly is disposed on the substrate and including a working electrode and a reference electrode. The hydrophobic insulation layer is arranged over the substrate and has a notch. The cover hoods the notch and cooperates with the substrate to form a sample channel accommodating the reagent-containing membrane. The reagent-containing membrane is made of materials selected from a group consisting of a lactic acid, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), diaphorase, and potassium ferricyanide. A bioelectrochemical reaction between the reagent-containing membrane and the lactate dehydrogenase induces an electrical signal variation in the electrode assembly, which indicates the content of the lactate dehydrogenase.

1. A lactate dehydrogenase detector, which is used to detect a content of lactate dehydrogenase in a biological sample, comprising
a substrate; an electrode assembly disposed on the substrate and including a working electrode, a reference electrode arranged opposite the working electrode, a measurement member and a connection section connected with the measurement member; a hydrophobic insulation layer arranged over the substrate, covering the measurement member and connection section, and having a notch exposing the measurement member; a cover hooding the notch and cooperating with the substrate to form a sample channel, wherein the sample channel includes a sample taking opening extended to a circumference of the substrate and a sample blocking end opposite the sample taking opening and blocked by the hydrophobic insulation layer, and wherein the measurement member is disposed between the sample taking opening and the sample blocking end; and a reagent-containing membrane disposed inside the sample channel and contacting the working electrode and the reference electrode, wherein the reagent-containing membrane is made of materials selected from a group consisting of a lactic acid, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), diaphorase, and potassium ferricyanide, and wherein after the reagent-containing membrane contacts the lactate dehydrogenase in the biological sample, a bioelectrochemical reaction takes place between the reagent-containing membrane and the lactate dehydrogenase and induces an electrical signal variation in the electrode assembly, which indicates the content of the lactate dehydrogenase in the biological sample.
