Summary for Patent: 5,071,767
Title: Process for the determination of fructosamine in body fluids and calibration solution
Abstract:For the determination of fructosamine in body fluids a solution containing fructosamine and albumin is used as the standard solution for calibration which standard solution is essentially free of glucose and which has a pH between 5.0 and 6.0 and contains at least 10 mmol/l buffer.
Inventor(s): Portenhauser; Rudolf (Tutzing, DE), Vogt; Bernd (Tutzing, DE)
Assignee: Boehringer Mannheim GmbH (Mannheim, DE)
Application Number:07/375,746
Patent Claims:1. A process for the determination of fructosamine in body fluid comprising

measuring a characteristic of the body fluid that is related to the amount of fructosamine in the body fluid, and

comparing the measured characteristic with one obtained with a standard solution containing a known amount of fructosamine and albumin and wherein said standard solution is essentially free of glucose, has a pH of 5.0-6.0 and contains at least 10 mmol/l buffer.

2. The process of claim 1 wherein the albumin is human serum albumin or bovine serum albumin.

3. The process of claim 1 or 2 wherein the standard solution containing albumin is dialyzed, buffered human serum at pH 5.0-6.0.

4. The process of claim 1 or 2 wherein the standard solution has a pH between 5.4 and 5.9.

5. The process of claim 1 or 2 wherein the standard solution has 10 to 70 mmol/l buffer.

6. The process of claim 1 or 2 wherein the buffer is a phosphate buffer.

7. A standard solution for the determination of fructosamine comprising fructosamine, albumin and at least 10 mmol/l buffer, wherein the standard solution has a pH in the range of 5.0 to 6.0 and is essentially free of glucose.
