| Abstract;It has been known that a small amount of serum albumin (30 .MU.g/ml) is detected in urine at the early stage of diabetes mellitus due to diabetic nephropathy and it is called microalbuminuria. First we tried to develop a biosensor system with a quartz crystal microbalance for simple and rapid detection of such serum albumin. At first, oscillation of the quartz crystal microbalance was not stable in ion-containing solutions such as urine. Then we constructed a flow cell, in which only one side of the electrodes of a piezoelectric quartz crystal is in contact with the liquid. As a result, oscillation was stable and human serum albumin (10 .MU.g/ml) was detected with the quartz crystal on which anti-human serum albumin was coated via polyethylenimine. Using this system, we can monitor microalbuminuria, conveniently and rapidly. (author abst.) |
