The present invention relates to a cartridge for sensor for detecting the concentrations of one or more components in a sample. The cartridge for sensor for detecting one or more components in a sample of the present invention not only enables quantitative measurement of one or more components in a sample by one time sample injection but also facilitates mass-production with low cost owing to the simple structure and easiness in preparation and carry. Therefore, the cartridge of the present invention can be effectively used as the biosensor cartridge for field measurement.

Disclosed relates to an electrochemical determination system of glycated proteins, the system comprising: a filtering means for filtering labeled compounds bound to glycated proteins and non-glycated proteins after adding labeling compounds, capable of selectively binding to the glycated proteins to a solution, in which glycated/non-glycated proteins coexist, to be bound all to the glycated proteins; and a quantifying means for quantifying the filtered labeling compounds, not bound to the glycated proteins. The system of the present invention filters the residual labeled compounds left after binding to glycated proteins to quantify, instead of directly quantifying glycated proteins via the known glycated protein determination methods, thus simplifying the configuration of the system that can provide exact determinations with a low cost. Moreover, the electrochemical determination system of glycated proteins of the present invention minimizes the interference that the proteins are absorbed to an analysis device and a sensor in the system, not using immune antibodies that are expensive and have limited lives and, furthermore, not modifying the electrodes of the electrode sensor with antibodies or enzymes, thus facilitating mass production, quality control and circulation of the products.

Disclosed is a microfluidic sensor complex structure comprising a lower plate, a middle plate and an upper plate. A reference electrode, a working electrode and an electrode connection are formed on the lower plate. The middle plate comprises a microfluidic channel passage therein. The upper plate is overlaid on the middle plate so as to induce a capillary phenomenon on the microfluidic channel passage formed on in the middle plate. The microfluidic sensor complex structure allows the motion of a sample to be driven only by a capillary phenomenon, without additional operation, and allows an immune response, washing, and electrochemical analysis in one round once a sample is introduced thereinto. Hence, it requires only a short time period for measurement, is convenient to handle, and shows sensitivity and selectivity. Also, it can be produced on a mass scale because it can be formed of typical organic polymers using a simple method. Based on analytical electrochemistry, the microfluidic sensor complex structure can be used as a small-size sensor that can be applied to practice sites.
