DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0041] Further description on the structure involved in the present invention or these used technical terms is made below. Unless otherwise specified, they are understood and explained on the basis of general common terms in the field.
[0042] Detection Detection represents that it is assayed or tested whether one substance or material exists or not, for example, including, but not limited to, a chemical substance, an organic compound, an inorganic compound, a metabolite, a drug or a drug metabolite, an organic tissue or a metabolite of the organic tissue, a nucleic acid, a protein or a polymer. In addition, detection represents testing of the quantity of the substance or material. Further, assay further represents immunodetection, chemical detection, enzyme detection and the like.
[0043] Sample
[0044] A detection apparatus or a collected sample of the present invention includes a biological liquid (for example, a case liquid or a clinic sample). The liquid sample or a liquid specimen or a fluid sample or a fluid specimen can be originated from a solid state sample or a semi-solid state sample, including an excrement, a biological tissue and a food sample. The solid state or semi solid state can be converted into the liquid sample by any proper method, for example, mixing, titrating, macerating, incubating, dissolving or digesting the solid sample in a proper solution (for example, water, a nitrate solution or other buffer solutions) by means of enzymolysis. The biological sample includes samples originated from animals, plants and food, for example, including urine, saliva, blood and components thereof, a spinal fluid, a vaginal secretion, a sperm, an excrement, sweat, an excretion, a tissue, an organ, a culture of a tumor and organ, a cell culture and a medium originated from human or animal. Preferably, the biological sample is urine, and preferably, the biological sample is saliva. The food sample includes a food processed substance, a final product, meat, cheese, spirit, milk and drinking water. The plant sample includes any plant, plant tissue, plant cell culture and medium. An environmental sample is originated from an environment (for example, a liquid sample, a sewage sample, a soil sample, underground water, seawater and a waste liquor sample originated from a lake or other water bodies). The environmental sample further includes sewage or other waste water.
[0045] Any analyte can be detected by using a proper detection element or a testing element. Preferably, drug small molecules in saliva and urine are detected. Certainly, regardless of solid state or liquid state, the collector can collect abovementioned samples in any form if the liquids or liquid samples can be absorbed by an absorbing element. The absorbing element herein is commonly prepared from a water absorbing material and is dry in the beginning. The liquid sample or the fluid sample can be absorbed by means of capillary or other characteristics of the material of the absorbing element. The absorbing material can be any material capable of absorbing liquids, for example, a sponge, filter paper, a polyester fiber, a gel, a non-woven fabric, cotton, a polyester film, a yarn and the like. Certainly, the absorbing element is not necessarily prepared from the absorbing material, can be prepared from a non-water absorbing material, and the absorbing element is provided with holes, threads and a cavities. The samples can be collected on the structures. The samples are generally solid or semi-solid samples, and the samples fill the spaces among the threads and the holes or cavities.
[0046] Upstream and Downstream
[0047] Downstream or upstream is divided relative to a liquid flowing direction, and generally, the liquid flows to a downstream region from upstream. The liquid from the upstream region is received in the downstream region, and the liquid can further flow to the downstream region along the upstream region. Herein, it is divided according to the liquid flowing direction, for example, on some materials where the liquid flows by means of a capillary force, the liquid can flow toward a direction opposite to the gravity, and at the time, the upstream and the downstream are divided according to the liquid flowing direction.
[0048] Gas Communication or Liquid Communication
[0049] Gas communication or liquid communication means that the liquid or the gas can flow from one place to another place, and in the flowing process, a guiding role may be played through some physical structures. Flowing through the physical structures generally means that the liquid flows through the surfaces of the physical structures or the inner spaces in the structure flow to another place passively or actively. Flowing passively generally refers to flowing due to an external force, for example, flowing under a capillary action. Flowing herein may be flowing of the liquid or the gas due to self action (gravity or pressure) or passive flowing. Communication herein by no means represents that there is the liquid or the gas. It is indicated only in some circumstances a connecting relation or state between two objects. If there is the liquid, the liquid can flow from one object to the other one. It herein refers to a state that the two objects are connected. On the contrary, if there is no liquid communication state or gas communication state between the two objects and the liquid in one object or on the one object, the liquid cannot flow to the other one object or on the other one object. Such as state is non-communicated: a non-liquid or gas communicated state.
[0050] Test Element
[0051] The so called test element means that elements capable of detecting whether the specimens or samples contain interesting analytes can be called test elements. The detection can be based on any technical principles, for example, immunological, chemical, electric, optical, molecular, nucleic and physical principles. The test element can be selected from a transverse flowing detection test strip which can detect various analytes. Certainly, other proper test element can apply the present invention, too.
[0052] Various test elements can be combined together and can be applied to the present invention. The detection test strip is one of forms. The detection test strip for analyzing the analytes in the specimens (for example, drug or metabolite reflecting physical condition) can be various forms, for example, immunoassay or chemical analysis. The detection test strip can be in an analytical mode of a non-competition law or a competition law. The detection test strip generally contains a water absorbing material with a specimen adding region, a reagent region and a test region. The specimens are added into the specimen region and flow to the reagent region by means of action of a capillary tube. In the reagent region, if there is the analytes, the specimen and a reagent are combined. Then, the specimen flows to the detection region continuously. Some other reagents, for example, molecules specifically combined with the analytes are fixed in the detection region. The reagents are reacted with the analytes (if exist) in the specimen, and the analytes are combined in the region or are combined with some reagent in the reagent region. A marker for displaying a detection signal has a marker region separated from the reagent region.
[0053] The typical non competition law analytical mode is that if the specimen contains the analytes, a signal is generated, and if not, no signal is generated. In the competition law, if the analytes are not in the specimen, the signal is generated, and if no, no signal is generated.
[0054] The test element can be detection test paper which can be made from a water absorbing or non-water absorbing material. The detection test paper can include various materials for transferring the liquid specimen. The material of one detection test paper covers the other material, for example, the filter paper covers a nitrocellulose membrane. One region of the detection test paper can be one or more materials and the other region select one or more different materials. The detection test paper can be adhered to some support or hard surface for improving the strength of taking the detection test paper.
[0055] The analytes are detected by a signal generation system. By means of one or more enzymes specifically reacted with the analytes, compositions of one or more signal generation systems are fixed to the analyte detection region of the detection test paper by means of a method of fixing the specifically combined substances to the detection test paper. A substance generating signals can be in the specimen adding region, the reagent region or the detection region, or the whole detection test paper. The substance can fill one or more materials of the detection test paper. A solution containing a signifier is added to the surface of the test paper or one or more materials of the test paper are immersed in the solution containing the signifier. The test paper where the solution containing the signifier is dried.
[0056] The regions of the detection test paper can be arranged according to the following modes: the specimen adding region, the reagent region, the detection region, a control region, a region for determining whether the specimen is adulterated or not and a liquid sample absorbing region. The control region is located behind the detection region. All the regions can be arranged on one test paper only prepared from one material. Different regions can be made from different materials. The regions can be in direct contact with the liquid specimen or different regions are arranged according to the flowing direction of the liquid specimen, and the tail ends of the regions are connected and superposed with the front ends of the other regions. The used material can be a material with a better water absorbing property, for example, filter paper, a glass fiber or a nitrocellulose membrane and the like. The detection test paper can be in other forms.
[0057] A generally common reagent strip is a nitrocellulose membrane reagent strip, i.e., the detection region includes the nitrocellulose membrane, and a detection result is displayed by fixing specifically combined molecules to the nitrocellulose membrane. The detection region can further be the nitrocellulose membrane or a nylon membrane and the like. For example, the reagent strips or the apparatuses containing the reagent strips described in some patents below: U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,857,453; 5,073,484; 5,119,831; 5,185,127; 5,275,785; 5,416,000; 5,504,013; 5,602,040; 5,622,871; 5,654,162; 5,656,503; 5,686,315; 5,766,961; 5,770,460; 5,916,815; 5,976,895; 6,248,598; 6,140,136; 6,187,269; 6,187,598; 6,228,660; 6,235,241; 6,306,642; 6,352,862; 6,372,515; 6,379,620; and 6,403,383. The test strips and similar apparatus with the test strips disclosed in the abovementioned patents can be applied to detecting analytes in the test element or the detection apparatus, for example, detection of the analytes in the specimen.
[0058] The detection reagent strips applied to the present invention can be generally called lateral flow test strips, the specific structures and detection principles of which are known technologies to those of ordinary skilled in the art. A common detection reagent strip includes the specimen collecting region or the specimen adding region, a marking region, a detection region and a water absorbing region. The specimen collecting region includes a specimen receiving pad, the marking region includes a marking pad, and the water absorbing region can include a water absorbing pad, and the detection region can include a necessary chemical substance capable of detecting whether the analytes are comprised, for example, an immunoreagent or an enzyme chemical reagent. A generally common detection reagent strip is a nitrocellulose membrane reagent strip, i.e., the detection region includes the nitrocellulose membrane, and a detection result is displayed by fixing specifically combined molecules to the nitrocellulose membrane. The detection region can further be the nitrocellulose membrane or a nylon membrane and the like. Certainly, the downstream of the detection region can further include a detection result control region, and generally, the control region and the detection region appear in form of transverse line which is a detection line or a control line. The detection reagent strip is a conventional reagent strip, and certainly, it can be the reagent strip of other types for detection by means of capillary action. In addition, the common detection test strip is provided with a dry chemical reagent component, for example, a solid antibody or other reagents. When encountering a liquid, the liquid flows along with the reagent strip by means of the capillary action. Along with flowing, the dried reagent component is dissolved in the liquid, so that the dry reagent in the region is reacted in the next region, thereby carrying out necessary detection. Liquid flowing is primarily carried out by capillary action. It can be applied to the detection apparatus herein or is arranged in a detection cavity to be in contact with the liquid sample or is used to detect whether the analytes in the liquid sample entering the detection cavity exist or not or the quantity thereof. The test element is generally arranged in the test cavity. When the test cavity has the fluid specimen, the fluid specimen is in contact with the test member for assay or detection.
[0059] The test strip or the lateral flow test strip itself are used to be in contact with the liquid specimen to test whether the liquid specimen contains the analytes. In some preferred implementation modes, the test element can further be arranged on some carriers. As shown in
[0060] Analytes
[0061] An example capable of using the analytes in the present invention includes some small molecular substances, and the small molecular substances include drugs (for example drug abuse). “Drug abuse (DOA)” refers to use of drugs (generally playing a role of paralyzing the nerves) in a non-medical purpose. Abuse of the drugs will lead to physical and spiritual damage, thereby generating dependency, addiction and/or death. A case of drug abuse includes cocaine; amphetamine AMP (for example, black beauty, white amphetamine tablet, dextroamphetamine, dextroamphetamine tablet, Beans); methylamphetamine MET (crank, methamphetamine, crystal, speed); barbiturate BAR (for example, Valium, Reche Pharmaceuticals, Nutley, N.J.); a sedative (that is, a sleep assist drug); lysergic acid diethylamide (LDS); an inhibitor (downers, goofballs, barbs, blue devils, yellow jackets, methaqualone); a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA, i.e., imipramine, amitriptyline and doxepin); dimethoxymethylaniline MDMA; phencyclidine (PCP); tetrahydrocannabinol (THC, pot, dope, hash, weed and the like); an opiate (i.e., morphine MOP or, opium, cocaine (COC), heroin and hydroxydihydrocodeine); antianxietic and sedative-hypnotic drug, wherein the antianxietic is a drug primarily used for alleviating anxiety, tension and fear and stabilizing motion, and has sedative-hypnotic effects, including benzodiazepines (BZO), atypia BZ, fused dihydro NB23C, benzoazepines, ligands of BZ receptors, opened ring BZ, a diphenylmethane derivative, piperazine carboxylate, piperidine carboxylate, quinazolinone, thiazine and a thiazine derivative, other heterocycles, an imidazole sedative/painkiller (for example, hydroxydihydrocodeine OXY, adanon MTD), a propylene glycol deviative-mephenesin carbamate, an aliphatic compound, an anthracene derivative and the like. The detection apparatus using the present invention can be further used for detection of drugs in medical purpose with drug overdose, for example, a tricyclic antidepressant (imipramine or analogue) and acetaminophen and the like. The drugs absorbed by a human body will be metabolized to small molecular substances, and the small molecular substances exist in body fluids such as blood, urine, saliva and sweat or part of body fluids exist in the small molecular substances.

Sewage and related waste can further be included in the environmental sample.
[0065] Flowing of Liquid
[0066] Flowing of liquid generally means that the liquid flows from one place to the other place. Under a common circumstance, most liquids in natural flow to a low place from a high place under the action of gravity. Flowing herein is dependent on an external force, that is, flowing under the action of gravity, and can become flowing under natural gravity. Besides gravity, flowing of liquid can further overcome gravity to flow from the low place to the high place. For example, due to extraction of the liquid or oppression of the liquid or stress of the liquid, the liquid flows to the high place from the low place, or the liquid flows by means of a relation of a pressure by overcoming the gravity of the liquid.
Detailed Description
[0067] How to implement the present invention is described by the specific modes below. The implementation modes are specific modes enumerated definitely. Those of ordinary skill in the art can easily think additional specific modes in the mode, the specific additional implementation modes fall into the scope of the protection of the claims. The scope is reflected and defined specifically according to claims.
[0068] Referring to
[0069] It is actually a simple foldable test tube rack. The “test tube” herein is merely a common and easily understandable name and is not used to limit the rack body to place a test tube in general sense. The rack body can be used for placing any containers, for example, the test tube (as shown in
[0070] Therefore, the first surface 203 is provided with a hole 207 (there may be one or more dependent areas), and the hole 207 is used to insert or place the container, for example, the container like the test tube. A connection between the first surface and the supporting surface is provided with the broken lines 204 and 205, and the broken lines herein are not manually arranged. The first surface and the supporting surface are folded to form an interface or a boundary line, so as to distinguish the two surfaces. In an initial state, the first supporting surface 201 and the second supporting surface 202 and the first surface 203 may be planar paper or paperboards, and the paperboards are mechanically cut and are perforated in the first surface 203. The size of the hole is equivalent to that of the tube body for placement. When it is needed to use, the fold lines 204 and 205 are folded downwards to form a “n” shape, so that the rack body is in a standing form (
[0071] In some modes, it is not a planar paperboard but exists in form of being folded and shrunk (for example, as shown in
[0072] During manufacturing, for example, as shown in
[0073] In some embodiments, in order to make the rack body more stable, the rack body is further provided with the base surface 305, the base surface is connected with the fold line 308 of the second supporting surface 302 and the base surface 305 can further be connected with the first supporting surface. When it is in the folded and shrunk state, the first surface 303 and the base surface are folded inwards, so that it is in the shrunk state (
[0074] Generally speaking, when the folded and shrunk bracket is in the opened state, in the presence of the crease, the first surface 303 and the base surface 305 may not be standard curved surfaces or V-shaped form, for example, as shown in
[0075] In some modes, in order to connect the base surface 305 and the first supporting surface together, the base surface is provided with the pasting surface 306. When it is manufactured, the pasting surface is pasted to the inner surface of the first supporting surface 301 together, so that the base surface and the first supporting surface are connected, and the base surface 305 and the pasting surface 306 are connected via the fold line or the fold line 313.
[0076] For example, as shown in
[0077]
[0078] If it is to form the state shown in
[0079] As shown in
[0080] Thus, when it is folded and shrunk, the steady surface 200, the base surface 300 or the first surface 103 can be folded toward a same direction, for example, folded upwards or downwards or the first surface 103 and the base surface 200 are folded inwards (in the implementation mode with the base), and the steady surface can be folded upwards or downwards. In a word, it can be in the folded and shrunk mode. The direction in which each surface is folded is not defined.
[0081] According to the folding direction shown in
[0082] In another preferred mode, the second splicing surface 107 connected with the steady surface 300 is connected with the inner surface 201 of the first supporting surface via the second splicing surface. The steady surface 300 is connected with the second splicing surface 107 via the fold line 118 (
[0083] In the specific manufacturing process, it is easy to manufacture. The integral manufacturing process of the rack body structure shown in
[0084] Introduction of the process of forming the rack body by folding in
[0085] It is to be understood that the rack body structure as shown in
[0086] In some other modes, under the circumstance of no first surface, the merely two supporting surfaces can realize the test tube rack in two states: folded and shrunk and opened states. For example, as shown in
[0087] The “crease line”, the “fold line” and the broken line” herein express interchangeablity rather than lines drawn herein. They represent positions. In the positions, the two surfaces can be folded oppositely or doubled back or bended, or the surfaces are hinged, and the two surfaces folded by a hinge or the relative positions are changed. The rack body structure can be manufactured by any sheet: a material with certain rigidity, for example, a thin plastic sheet, a metal sheet and a paperboard. A preferred scheme is the paperboard. The paperboard is usually 1 mm or 2 mm thick or is thicker. In addition, the paperboard can be coated with a film. Preferably, the material has a thickness and the hard paperboard is used to manufacture the rack. The crease line, the fold line and the broken line can be formed by either a machine punching mode or continuous interval punching mode in the fold line position. Known methods capable of manufacturing the rack in positions needed to fold are easily implemented. Folding herein can further be such that when it is folded, the test tube rack can be folded along the crease from a paperboard or is in a form of the three-dimensional tube rack via the crease. When it is in the form of the three-dimensional tube rack, the test tube rack can be in two states: folded and shrunk state and stretching state. Stretching further includes natural stretching and manual stretching or stretching combining natural stretching and manual stretching. The so called natural stretching herein means that after the crease, when it is in the natural state, there is an internal force for natural stretching. The so called manual stretching means that the tube rack folded and shrunk by means of an external force is stretched to the three-dimensional form. The shrunk form exists in form of external force compression, for example,
[0088] The above merely introduces the rack body structure with a single hole. When a plurality of holes are needed, a plurality of different tube bodies are expected to be inserted, which can be implemented by the present invention. The test tube rack can be in two states: folded and shrunk state and stretching state.
[0089] In some modes, the width of the paperboard manufactured can be amplified in multiple times, for example, transverse amplification (actually longitudinal expansion), for example, 1 time, 2 times, 3 times, 4 times, 5 times or 10 times, for example, the edge 203 of the first supporting surface is amplified to 2-10 times in proportion (longitudinal extension), the first surface 103 is in proportion. The first surface 103 extends longitudinally. Thus, 2-10 or more holes (arrow head shown in
[0090] In another mode, as shown in
[0091] In some modes, there is still another transverse expanding mode which expands the transverse length of the first surface. For example, as shown in
[0092] Actually, the area of the first surface extends in two directions: longitudinal and transverse directions, and the plurality of holes can be formed in the first surface, and the plurality of test tubes can be inserted into the holes, so that different viruses are detected.
[0093] Detection Apparatus
[0094] The detection apparatus refers to an apparatus for detecting whether the specimen contains the analytes or not. The detection apparatus herein can purely include a detection cavity and test elements arranged inside, and it can be called the detection apparatus herein. For example, the detection apparatus includes the detection cavity, and the detection cavity includes the test element or test element comprising a carrier. In some modes, the detection cavity is provided with a liquid inlet, and a liquid specimen flows into the detection cavity through the liquid inlet and is in contact with the test element. In some modes, the specimen applying region of the test element is close to the liquid inlet. Thus, the liquid flows into the detection cavity from the inlet to be contacted with the specimen applying region, so that the liquid specimen flows to the detection region along the specimen applying region, and therefore, the analytes are assayed and detected.
[0095] In some modes, the detection apparatus is similar to a detection plate. An independent test element can further be used as an implementation mode of the present invention.
