Abstract

Glucose and protein in urine are among the important substances for urine analysis and have generally been measured based on a reagent strip test. In this study, these two substances were measured using mid-infrared absorption spectroscopy. Samples were prepared from a commercial synthetic urine product. Glucose and albumin were added as well as red blood cells, which are expected to create the most spectroscopic interference of any substance. Concentrations of these substances were varied independently. Optimal wavelength regions were determined from a partial least squares regression analysis (glucose 980 - 1150/cm, albumin 1400 - 1570/cm). Interference by other substances increased the differences between measured and predicted values. Albumin measurement in particular weres heavily influenced by the presence of glucose and red blood cells. Depending on the inference by other substances, measurement errors were 29.85${\sim}$45.19 mg/dl for a glucose level between 0 and 1000 mg/dl and 14.0${\sim}$93.11 mg/dl for an albumin level of 0 ${\sim}$ 500 mg/dl. Our study proposes an alternative to the chemical test-strip analysis, which shows only discrete concentration levels.

요당과 요단백은 소변검사의 중요한 항목으로 스트립을 사용하는 화학적 방법에 의하여 측정되어왔다. 본 연구에서는 중적외선 분광학을 이용하여 이 두 성분의 농도를 측정하였다. 샘플은 상용 합성뇨를 사용하였으며 여기에 추가적으로 글루코즈와 알부민, 그리고 가장 큰 영향의 간섭물질인 적혈구의 세 성분의 농도를 서로 상관관계 없이 조절하여 만들었다. 부분최소자승회귀법을 바탕으로 각 성분의 농도 예측을 위한 최적 파장대역을 구하였다 (글루코즈 980 - 1150/cm, 알부민 1400 - 1570/cm). 다른 성분에의한 간섭은 예측오차를 증가시켰으며, 특히 알부민의 경우에는 글루코즈와 적혈구에 의한 영향이 크게 나타났다. 타 성분의 유무에 따라서 글루코즈 농도가 0 ${\sim}$ 1000 mg/dl인 범위에서의 예측오차는 29.85 ${\sim}$ 45.19 mg/dl 이며 알부민 경우에는 0 ${\sim}$ 500 mg/dl 범위에서 예측오차는 14.0 ${\sim}$ 93.11 mg/dl 이였다. 본 연구는 몇 단계의 범위만을 제시하는 스트립을 이용한 기존의 요검사 보다 더욱 정량적 평가가 가능한 대안으로 사료되었다.
