Patent CA-2880321-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DUVALL STACY
IPC: C12Q1/00
Filed: 2013-09-04
Abstract: A method for improving the stability of a biosensor test element with respect to degradation by humidity in the air. To a reagent matrix on a test element with working and counter electrodes is provided a deliquescent material selected and in an amount effective to decrease the sorption of water from the air by other components of the reagent matrix. When the test element is a glucose test strip, and the reagent matrix includes a glucose dehydrogenase enzyme (GDH) a flavin adenine dinucleotide cofactor (FAD), a nitrosoaniline mediator, and a film former comprising polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), the deliquescent material may include a salt such as NaCl in an amount effective to absorb water from the atmosphere at a rate that is faster than the rate at which the other components of the reagent matrix absorb water from the atmosphere. The above method finds particular utility in use with reagent mixtures, such as the reagent mixture of a glucose biosensor, that lose their function or are unstable under high humidity conditions resulting in strip failure or biased results (e.g., when vials of glucose strips are open for extended time in steamy rooms or tropical conditions). The present invention provides an improvement in glucose strip stability under such conditions, by adding a new component to the reagent matrix that reduces the water sorption properties and consequently does not create the environment for active component degradation to occur.
