Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a test agent capable of simply examine diabetes constituted so as to generate discoloration upon the contact with urine in a toilet stool if glucose is present, by mixing a reagent discolored by glucose with a sublimable or water-soluble carrier and molding the resulting mixture. CONSTITUTION:For example, a sublimable compound such as naphthaline or P-dichlorbenzene is used as a carrier and glucoseoxidase is mixed with the carrier as a reagent to form a molded body. This molded body is put in a toilet stool and, if there is glucose in urine, glucose is decomposed to H2O2 and glucronic acid and, if ortho-tolidine is together contained in the molded body, oxygen generated from H2O2 is reacted with ortho-tolidine and the color of the molded body changes to blue or green and, therefore, diabetes can be discovered simply at an early stage. A water-soluble carrier may be used in place of the sublimable carrier. If a aromatic substance such as naphthaline is used, the deodorizing of a toilet can be also performed.

Conventionally, test strips impregnated with reagents have generally been used to test for diabetes. However, this testing method using test strips is very cumbersome as it requires the steps of collecting urine in a container, dispensing it into a test tube, and dipping the test strip. Furthermore, the above test strips are expensive and are only used for diagnosing diabetes, but are not used in daily life due to the complexity and hesitation of testing. Therefore, it is generally impossible to detect diabetes early in daily life.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned points, and by mixing and molding a reagent that changes color due to the presence of glucose into a sublimable or water-soluble carrier, for example, it can be used in a men's urinal so that urine can be splashed on it during urination. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a simple diabetes test agent that enables early detection in people who are not aware of diabetes in their daily lives.

Furthermore, another object of the present invention is to provide a simple diabetes test agent that can also be used to deodorize a toilet bowl or toilet by using a sublimable aromatic substance such as naphthalene or P-dichlorobenzene as a carrier. There is something to do.

The simple diabetes test agent 1 is formed into a spherical shape by using a sublimable aromatic substance such as P-dichlorobenzene or naphthalene as a carrier 2 and mixing sample 13, which changes color in the presence of glucose, into the carrier 2. The carrier 2 may be not a sublimable substance but a water-soluble substance that is solid at room temperature, and may be either a single substance or a composite. In addition, as reagent 3,
Glucose oxidase, Neulander reagent, etc. are used.

If glucose oxidase is used as reagent 3, this glucose oxidase oxidizes and decomposes glucose in urine into hydrogen peroxide and glucuronic acid, and this hydrogen peroxide is further decomposed into oxygen and water by a degrading enzyme, and this oxygen is It reacts with orthotolidine and turns blue or green.

When Newlander's reagent is used as a reagent, bismuth metal or suboxide is produced by the reducing action of glucose in urine, resulting in a black or dark brown color change. The type of reagent 3 mentioned above does not matter, but it is desirable that it changes color instantaneously or in a short period of time due to the presence of glucose.

Thus, the test agent 1 of the present invention is used by being placed in a men's toilet bowl, for example. If an aromatic substance is used as the carrier 2 of the test agent 1, it can also be used as a deodorant. If glucose is mixed in the urine applied to test agent 1,
The reagent 3 in the carrier 2 changes color, indicating that glucose is mixed in the urine. It should be noted that even if it is found that glucose is mixed in the urine, it does not necessarily mean that the patient has diabetes, but it should be kept in mind during normal times to detect diabetes early or to encourage a healthy diet.
