In some practical applications, the first electrode layer 22 at least includes a first electrode 221, a second electrode 222, a first conductive adhesive 18 attached to the first electrode 221 and used for connecting with a first contact of the first conductive layer 15 on the back surface of the test strip substrate, and a second conductive adhesive 19 attached to the second electrode 222 and used for connecting with a second contact of the first conductive layer 15 on the back surface of the test strip substrate, wherein the first electrode 221 and the second electrode 222 are respectively a working electrode and a counter electrode, the connection between the first electrode 221 and the first contact of the first conductive layer 15 on the back surface of the test strip substrate is realized by using the first conductive adhesive 18, and the connection between the second electrode 222 and the second contact of the first conductive layer 15 on the back surface of the test strip substrate is realized by using the second conductive adhesive 19.

The third electrode 222 'is connected with a third contact on the second conductive layer 15' on the front surface of the test strip substrate by using the third conductive adhesive 18', and the fourth electrode 222' is connected with a fourth contact on the second conductive layer 15 'on the front surface of the test strip substrate by using the fourth conductive adhesive 19'. And meanwhile, the relative positioning of the test strip detection area and the test strip substrate is realized. Of course, the conductive adhesive (including the first conductive adhesive, the second conductive adhesive, the third conductive adhesive, Fourth conductive glue) may also be disposed on the first conductive layer 15 and the second conductive layer 15' of the test strip substrate, specifically, the first conductive glue 18 is disposed on the first contact of the first conductive layer 15, the second conductive glue 19 is disposed on the second contact of the first conductive layer 15, the third conductive glue 18' is disposed on the third contact of the second conductive layer 15', the fourth conductive glue 19' is disposed on the fourth contact of the second conductive layer 15', and the first electrode layer 22 and the second electrode layer 22' and the second conductive layer 15' are connected by conductive glue, so that the first electrode layer 22 and the second electrode layer 22' of the test strip detection area are respectively contacted with the first conductive layer 15 and the second conductive layer 15' of the test strip substrate, and meanwhile, the relative positioning of the test strip detection area and the test strip substrate is realized, and the conductive glue is converted from being disposed on the first electrode layer 22 and the second electrode layer 22' to being disposed on the first conductive layer 15 and the second conductive layer 15', which is a relatively easy replacement manner for those skilled in the art.

The double-sided adhesive tape has similar components to the conductive adhesive, but conductive particles therein are removed, and the proportions of the components are different from those of the conductive adhesive. The conductive adhesive and the double-sided adhesive used in the scheme are both heat-sensitive, or the conductive adhesive is only heat-sensitive, the adhesiveness of the conductive adhesive at the temperature below 15 ℃ is not strong, the assembly and the matching of the sliding grooves or the sliding blocks on the first side and the second side of the detection area of the test strip and the first arm and the second arm of the substrate of the test strip are facilitated, the adhesiveness of the conductive adhesive above 40 ℃ is increased, and after the pressure is applied to the conductive adhesive of the test strip, the first electrode layer 22 and the second electrode layer 22 'of the detection area of the test strip are respectively contacted with the first conductive layer 15 and the second conductive layer 15', so that the electric signals from the detection instrument are transmitted to the first reaction area and the second reaction area of the detection area of the test strip. The surface of the conductive adhesive can be attached with a release film or not attached with a release film. The size of the conductive adhesive should be kept from being too small to prevent the adhesion from being unstable, and should be kept from being too large to prevent the adjacent two electrodes from being conducted and shorted, and the size of the conductive adhesive is preferably consistent with the sizes of the electrode B2212, the electrode D2222, the electrode F-2212', and the electrode H-2222', which are described below.

The resistances of the resistor AB2213, the resistor CD2223, the resistor EF2213', and the resistor GH2223' may be set to 0 to infinity, and in some specific implementations, different resistance values can be realized by controlling the type and the printing width of the printing resistor ink.
In order to facilitate and quickly realize the judgment of the type of the reaction area (i.e. the detection content), in some practical applications, the detection instrument is already built with corresponding tables (such as the resistor AB2213, the resistor CD2223 and the reaction area corresponding table described in table 1, which are only illustrative for easy understanding and not limiting the invention) before leaving the factory, according to the foregoing corresponding tables, the resistor AB2213 and the resistor CD2223 are printed with corresponding resistance values for different reaction areas (the reaction areas are different and the detection content is also different), and after the test strip is inserted, the detection instrument realizes the judgment of the type of the reaction area by detecting the resistance values of the resistor AB2213 and/or the resistor CD 2223.

In practical application, after the assembled test strip (including the test strip substrate and the test strip detection area installed on the test strip substrate) is inserted into the detection instrument, the detection instrument can obtain the resistance information of the resistor AB2213 and/or the resistor CD2223 by applying an electric signal, and according to the difference of resistance values of the resistors, the type (i.e. detection content) of the reaction area of the test strip detection area is judged, and corresponding detection signals are applied, so that the detection content of the current test strip detection area can be accurately identified. The following examples are presented for ease of understanding, but are not to be construed as limiting the invention. As shown in FIG. 5, after a certain test strip detection area is assembled on a test strip substrate, an electrode A2211 and an electrode B2212 are respectively electrically connected with wires 3002 and 3001 on the test strip substrate through a conductive adhesive A181 and a conductive adhesive B182, an electrode C2221 and an electrode D2222 are respectively electrically connected with wires 3003 and 3004 on the test strip substrate through a conductive adhesive C191 and a conductive adhesive D192, a detection instrument is used for respectively detecting the current on a resistor AB2213 and a resistor CD2223 to be 0.5A and 0.25A by applying a direct current of 0.5V between the wires 3001 and 3002 and respectively obtaining the resistance values of the resistor AB2213 and the resistor CD2223 to be 1 ohm and 2 ohm by dividing the voltage by the current. As can be seen from the query in table 1, the detection content of the detection area of the current test strip is uric acid, the detection instrument will call the detection parameters of uric acid, act on the wires 3002 and 3003, and collect and process the current results at the two ends of the wires 3002 and 3003, so as to finally obtain the concentration of uric acid in the analyte. Of course, in some practical applications, instead of the foregoing method of judging the type of the reaction area by using the built-in correspondence table and performing the detection, different test strip detection areas may be mounted on the test strip substrate according to a preset sequence, so as to ensure the accuracy of the detection, for example, the detection contents corresponding to the test strip detection areas of the three mounting positions 14 on the test strip substrate are respectively blood sugar, blood ketone and uric acid, and then the three test strip detection areas are mounted on the three mounting positions 14 according to the sequence, so as to ensure the accuracy of the detection (the detection parameters of the three mounting positions 14 have been preset by the instrument).
In some practical applications, on the one hand, the control of the resistance value is realized by blending the ink with strong conductivity and the ink with poor conductivity, such as the ink containing conductive substances such as gold, silver, copper, carbon, platinum carbon and the like, and the ink with poor conductivity, such as the ink containing other organic substances such as titanium dioxide, organic amine black and the like, is non-conductive or has poor conductivity. On the other hand, by controlling the printing width or thickness of the resistor AB2213 and the resistor CD2223, further adjustment of the resistance value of the resistor can be realized. According to the formula r=ρl/S for the resistance, ρ is the resistivity of the material from which the resistance is made, L is the length of the wire of the resistance (in this case, L is the distance between two carbon electrodes of the connection resistance, for example, the distance between the electrode a2211 and the electrode B2212, the length of which is constant), S is the cross-sectional area of the wire of the resistance (s=z×d, Z is the thickness of the printed resistance, d is the width of the printed resistance), and R is the resistance value. The rho value can be changed by changing the proportion of the conductive paste (the proportion of the ink with strong conductivity and the ink with poor conductivity), the resistance cross-sectional area can be changed by changing Z or d, and the aim of adjusting the resistance value can be realized by all three modes. For example, different printed resistances may be achieved according to the ratio adjustments in table 2 (for illustrative purposes only for ease of understanding and not for limitation of the present invention).
Table 2 table for adjusting resistance of resistors
Similarly, the foregoing method may be adopted for the second reaction layer 23 'and the second electrode layer 22' to determine the type of the reaction region, which is not described herein again. The electrode E2211 'and the electrode F2212' are electrically connected with the wires 3002 'and 3001' on the test strip substrate through the conductive adhesive E181 'and the conductive adhesive F182', respectively, and the electrode G2221 'and the electrode H2222' are electrically connected with the wires 3003 'and 3004' on the test strip substrate through the conductive adhesive G191 'and the conductive adhesive H192', respectively.
The first reaction layer 23 includes a first insulating printed layer 231 disposed above the first electrode layer 22, a hollow is formed in the middle of the first insulating printed layer 231, and a first reagent layer 232 is filled in the hollow to form the first reaction region. The enzyme liquid added to the first reagent layer 232 may be glucose dehydrogenase, β -hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, urate oxidase, lactate dehydrogenase, or the like, and is used for detecting blood glucose, blood ketone, uric acid, lactic acid, or the like. The first reaction region area is fixed by the first insulating print layer 231, and the excessive diffusion of the enzyme solution can be restricted, and the material is a nonconductive material such as polyethylene ink, resin ink, or the like. The second reaction layer 23 'has the same structure as the first reaction layer 23, and includes a second insulating printed layer 231' disposed on the channel layer 24, wherein a hollow is formed in the middle of the second insulating printed layer 231', and a second reagent layer 232' is filled in the hollow to form the second reaction region. The enzyme liquid added to the second reagent layer 232' may be glucose dehydrogenase, β -hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, urate oxidase, lactate dehydrogenase, etc., for detecting blood glucose, blood ketone, uric acid, lactic acid, etc. The second reaction region area is fixed by the second insulating print layer 231', and the excessive diffusion of the enzyme solution can be restricted, and the material is a nonconductive material such as polyethylene ink, resin ink, or the like.
The channel layer 24 includes a double-sided tape a241 and a double-sided tape B242 attached to the first reaction layer 23 and the second reaction layer 23' at the same time, and a gap is left between the double-sided tape a241 and the double-sided tape B242 to form a sample channel 243, which is arranged corresponding to the first reaction region and the second reaction region, so that a biological sample flowing in the sample channel 243 can flow through the first reaction region and the second reaction region and react in the first reaction region and the second reaction region, thereby realizing detection of a physiological index. In some practical applications, the double-sided tape a241 is formed with a first positioning protrusion 2411, the double-sided tape B242 is formed with a second positioning protrusion 2421, the first positioning protrusion 2411 and the second positioning protrusion 2421 are respectively located at two sides of the sample channel 243 and protrude towards a direction away from the sample channel 243, and the double-sided tape has a certain softness and supporting force, so that a first fitting part for realizing fitting positioning with the test strip substrate is formed at a first edge and a second edge of the test strip detection area. To ensure accuracy of the test strip detection zone assembly, the first and second positioning protrusions 2411 and 2421 are asymmetrically disposed on both sides of the sample channel 243. Of course, within the scope of the skilled person, the first positioning protrusions 2411 and the second positioning protrusions 2421 may also be symmetrically arranged on both sides of the sample channel 243, and furthermore, it is also possible to provide only the first positioning protrusions 2411 on the double-sided tape a241 or only the second positioning protrusions 2412 on the double-sided tape B242, thereby forming the first fitting portion for fitting and positioning with the test strip substrate on the first side or the second side of the test strip detection area.
The cover layer 25 is a hydrophilic film and is disposed over the second electrode layer 22'. In some practical applications, a protrusion 251 is disposed on the cover layer 25 corresponding to the inlet of the sample channel 243, and a recess 252 adapted to the protrusion 251 is disposed on the cover layer 25 corresponding to the outlet of the sample channel 243. When two or more test strip detection zones are spliced, the sample channels 243 of adjacent two test strip detection zones are connected to each other, and the protrusions 251 on one test strip detection zone are embedded into the recesses 252 of the other test strip detection zone, so that the flow of biological samples can be assisted until the biological samples fill the sample channels 243 of each test strip detection zone. As shown in fig. 6, the flow of the biological sample is achieved by capillary action of the sample channel 243, specifically, since the insulating substrate layer 21 and the cover layer 25 have hydrophilicity, the biological sample tends to spread rightward on the surfaces of the insulating substrate layer 21 and the cover layer 25, and thus two rightward forces m1 and m2 are generated to the biological sample, under which the biological sample continues to flow rightward. When the biological sample flows to the position ① shown in fig. 7, a break point (where the cover layers of two adjacent test strip detection areas are joined) occurs at the cover layer 25, the force m1 weakens until it disappears, but the force m2 still exists, so that the biological sample can still continue to flow to the right. Until the biological sample contacts the cover layer 25 of the second test strip detection zone (located after the break point described above), the force m1 reappears. After the biological sample is completely filled in the sample channel, the applied forces m1 and m2 completely disappear, and the biological sample stops flowing.
For ease of understanding, taking the example of two mutually-spliced test strip detection zones shown in FIG. 8, when a biological sample (e.g., blood, etc.) is added to the sample channel from the inlet side (the side with the protrusions) of detection zone 2002, the biological sample will flow within the sample channel due to capillary action to the outlet side (the side with the recesses 252) of detection zone 2002. If the exit side of the detection zone 2002 is not accessible to other detection zones, the biological sample will cease to flow due to the presence of surface tension. If the detection zone 2001 is spliced on the outlet side of the detection zone 2002, and the protrusions 251 of the detection zone 2001 are embedded in the recesses 252 of the detection zone 2002, the biological sample will continue to flow into the sample channel of the detection zone 2001 under capillary action and flow all the way to the outlet side of the detection zone 2001, although the last test strip detection zone abutting the test strip substrate may also have no recess 252.
In some practical applications, the sample channels 243 of the test strip detection areas mounted on the test strip substrate are mutually communicated, and a user can fill all the sample channels with the biological sample by utilizing the capillary action only by adding the biological sample to the sample inlet of the test strip detection area at the outermost end, without adding the biological sample to each test strip detection area respectively, so that the use is more convenient.
As shown in fig. 4, in some practical applications, the projected width of the channel layer 24 in the direction perpendicular to the insulating substrate layer 21 is slightly smaller than the width of the insulating substrate layer 21 and the cover layer 25 (for example, the projected width of the channel layer in the direction perpendicular to the insulating substrate layer 21 is about 1mm-3mm smaller than the widths of the insulating substrate layer 21 and the cover layer 25), so that the first sliding groove 27 and the second sliding groove 29 respectively located on both sides of the sample channel 243 are formed between the insulating substrate layer 21 and the cover layer 25. When installed, the test strip substrate is at least partially embedded in the first chute 27 and/or the second chute 29 such that the test strip detection zone can only move relative to the test strip substrate along the length of the first chute 27 and/or the second chute 29 until a designated position is reached. Of course, within the scope of the skilled person, the connection structure between the test strip detection area and the test strip substrate may be that a, a first sliding groove 27 is formed on a first edge of the test strip detection area, a second sliding block is formed on a second edge opposite to the first edge, and the inner side of the second arm 13 of the test strip substrate matched with the second sliding block is partially hollowed out, when the test strip substrate (for example, the first arm) is installed, the test strip substrate is at least partially embedded into the first sliding groove 27, and the second sliding block is at least partially embedded into the test strip substrate, so that the test strip detection area can only move relative to the test strip substrate along the length direction of the first sliding groove 27 until reaching a designated position. b. a first sliding block is formed on a first edge of the test strip detection area, the inner side of a first arm 12 of the test strip substrate matched with the first sliding block is partially hollowed out, a second sliding groove 29 is formed on a second edge opposite to the first edge, when the test strip detection area is installed, the first sliding block is at least partially embedded into the test strip substrate, and the test strip substrate (such as a second arm) is at least partially embedded into the second sliding groove 29, so that the test strip detection area can only move relative to the test strip substrate along the length direction of the second sliding groove 29 until reaching a designated position. c. A first sliding block is formed on a first edge of the test strip detection area, a second sliding block is formed on a second edge opposite to the first edge, the inner side parts of a first arm 12 and a second arm 13 of the test strip substrate matched with the first sliding block and the second sliding block are hollowed out, and when the test strip detection area is installed, the first sliding block and the second sliding block are at least partially embedded into the test strip substrate, so that the test strip detection area can only move relative to the test strip substrate along the direction parallel to the first sliding block and the second sliding block (the length direction of the first arm and the second arm) until reaching a designated position. d. A slider is formed on only one side of the test strip detection area, and the slider is at least partially embedded into the test strip substrate when the test strip detection area is installed. e. The test strip detection zone has a chute formed on only one side thereof, and the test strip substrate (e.g., the first arm or the second arm) is at least partially embedded in the chute such that the test strip detection zone can only move relative to the test strip substrate along the length of the chute until a specified position is reached. Specifically, the double-sided tape A241 and the double-sided tape B242 of the test strip detection area can be used as sliding blocks, when the double-sided tape A241 and the double-sided tape B242 are embedded into the hollow space of the inner part of the test strip substrate, the hollow space can limit the movement of the test strip detection area in the left-right direction (refer to the left-right direction shown in fig. 4), specifically, the space between the insulating layer substrate 21 and the cover layer 25 of the test strip detection area can be used as a sliding groove, after the arms (the first arm and the second arm) at the two ends of the test strip substrate are embedded into the sliding groove, the displacement in the left-right direction (refer to the left-right direction shown in fig. 4) is limited, and when all the detection areas are installed on the substrate, a rolling process is further carried out, the first electrode layer 22 of the test strip detection area is pressed in the up-down direction (refer to the up-down direction shown in fig. 4), The second electrode layer 22 'is firmly adhered to the first conductive layer 15 and the second conductive layer 15' on the test strip substrate, the conductive adhesive can conduct the electrodes on two sides, and meanwhile, the conductive adhesive firmly adheres the test strip detection area to the test strip substrate, so that the displacement of the detection area can be limited. The direction of the movement of the test strip detection area relative to the test strip substrate is the length direction of the first arm and the second arm.
In some practical applications, when the first side and the second side of the test strip detection area are respectively formed with the first chute 27 and the second chute 29, the first arm 12 is at least partially embedded in the first chute 27, the second arm 13 is at least partially embedded in the second chute 29, so as to implement the mounting of the test strip detection area on the mounting position 14, and the first electrode layer 22 and the second electrode layer 22 'of the test strip detection area are respectively contacted with the first conductive layer 15 and the second conductive layer 15' of the test strip substrate, so that the electrical signals from the detection instrument are transferred to the first reaction area and the second reaction area of the test strip detection area to promote the occurrence of the detection reaction, and the electrical signals generated in the first reaction area and the second reaction area are transferred to the detection instrument. In some practical applications, a first contact is disposed on the first conductive layer 15 of the first arm 12 at a position corresponding to the mounting position 14, a second contact is disposed on the first conductive layer 15 of the second arm 13 at a position corresponding to the mounting position 14, a third contact is disposed on the second conductive layer 15 'of the first arm 12 at a position corresponding to the mounting position 14, a fourth contact is disposed on the second conductive layer 15' of the second arm 13 at a position corresponding to the mounting position 14, after the test strip detection area is mounted on the mounting position 14, the first conductive adhesive 18 on the test strip detection area contacts the first contact, the second conductive adhesive 19 contacts the second contact, the third conductive adhesive 18 'contacts the third contact, the fourth conductive adhesive 19' contacts the fourth contact, and the contact between the first electrode layer 22 of the test strip detection area and the first conductive layer 15 of the test strip substrate and the contact between the second electrode layer 22 'of the test strip detection area and the second conductive layer 15' of the test strip substrate are realized.
In some implementations, the base plate body 11 is provided with a bottom protrusion 111 that mates with the recess 252 of the test strip detection zone to close the sample channel 243. When the last test strip detection zone abutting the test strip substrate does not have the recess 252, the substrate body 11 may not be provided with the bottom protrusion 111. As shown in fig. 9 and 10, when the test strip substrate has five mounting positions, the bottom protrusions 111 are disposed at the mounting positions 14 (at the side far from the free ends of the first arm 12 and the second arm 13) on the substrate body 11 and at the tail ends, after the five test strip detection regions are sequentially mounted at the five mounting positions, the five test strip detection regions are connected end to end (specifically, the two mutually spliced test strip detection regions are referred to), the sample channels 243 of the five test strip detection regions are sequentially connected, and the bottom protrusions 111 are embedded into the recesses 252 of the tail end test strip detection regions to seal the sample channels 243 and prevent the biological samples from continuing to flow outwards. In other practical applications, the substrate body 11 is provided with a fifth contact at a position corresponding to the bottom protrusion 111, and the measurement count-down is started only when the biological sample reaches the fifth contact (when the biological sample fills the whole sample channel), so that the detection result is more accurate. The first, second, third, fourth and fifth contacts may be part of a wire printed on the test strip substrate, or may be conductive contacts connected to a wire on the test strip substrate, all being part of a conductive layer (including the first and second conductive layers) of the test strip substrate, and the fifth contact may be disposed on the front or back side of the test strip substrate, preferably on the front side of the test strip substrate, within the scope of the skilled artisan.
In other practical applications, the first arm 12 is formed with a first positioning recess 121 matching the first positioning protrusion 2411, and the second arm 13 is formed with a second positioning recess 131 matching the second positioning protrusion 2421, so that a second fitting portion matching the first fitting portion of the test strip detection area to achieve the fitting positioning of the test strip detection area and the test strip substrate is formed on the first arm 12 and the second arm 13, for ensuring that the test strip detection area is fitted in place, and the specific first fitting portion refers to the first positioning protrusion 2411 and the second positioning protrusion 2421, and the second fitting portion refers to the first positioning recess 121 and the second positioning recess 131.
