METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETECTING AND QUANTIFYING GLUCOSE IN BODY FLUIDS

摘要

A method and device for the quantification of the concentration of glucose in blood and other body fluids, as well as samples derived from such fluids. The concentration of glucose being measured so as to enable a determination of the relative concentration of glucose in the sample to what is considered to be normal physiological limits. The device utilized in the measurement is a solid support to which is bound a member of a specific binding pair. Nonradioactive detection means are employed. A related device for in vivo testing is disclosed.
