Electrochemical sensor with sample pre-treatment function
First Claim
1. An electrochemical sensor having the function of sample pretreatment, comprising:
- an insulating substrate;
an electrode system disposed on the surface of the substrate comprising at least a working electrode and a reference electrode;
an electrically insulating layer partially covering the electrode system to form an electrochemical electrode reaction region that can accommodate sample solution as well as an air vent in an exposed area of the electrode system not covered by the electrically insulting layer;
a reaction layer disposed in the electrode reaction region comprising at least an oxidoreductase, an electron mediator, and at least a carrier; and
a pretreatment membrane layer disposed on the reaction layer of the electrode reaction region, which is capable of physically or chemically treating the sample solution, wherein after said sample solution is pretreated through the pretreatment membrane layer of the sensor, the pretreated sample solution enters the electrode reaction region covered with the reaction layer to undergo reaction with the oxidoreductase and the electron mediator.

Abstract
An electrochemical sensor with sample pretreatment function includes an insulating substrate, and an electrode system disposed on the substrate having at least a working electrode and a reference electrode. An electrically insulating layer partially covers the electrode system, so an exposed area of the electrode system not covered by the electrically insulting layer forms an electrochemical electrode reaction region that accommodates sample solution and an air vent. A reaction layer is disposed in the electrochemical electrode reaction region and includes at least an oxidoreductase, an electron mediator, and at least a carrier. A pretreatment membrane layer is disposed on the reaction layer of the electrode reaction region, which is capable of physically or chemically treating the sample solution, such that the sample solution is pretreated through the pretreatment membrane layer of the sensor and enters the electrochemical electrode reaction region covered with the reaction layer to undergo reaction with the oxidoreductase and the electron mediator.
