Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0003] In related technologies, methods for detecting physiological indicators include electrochemical detection and colorimetric methods. Electrochemical detection is based on electrochemical reactions, detecting specific chemical substances by measuring changes in current, voltage, or resistance. Colorimetric detection is based on the reaction of specific chemical reagents with target substances in sweat (such as electrolytes, lactic acid, glucose, etc.), resulting in color changes. By measuring these color changes, the concentration of the target substance can be inferred.

[0071] The accompanying drawings illustrate specific embodiments of this application, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to particular embodiments. Detailed Implementation
[0072] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this application as detailed in the appended claims.
[0073] Real-time monitoring of physiological indicators related to exercise and health helps athletes understand their metabolic status and exercise adaptation. Common physiological indicators include glucose, lactate, nitrogenous small molecules like urea, and pH. Glucose levels are related to an athlete's health and nutritional status; monitoring glucose levels can prevent fainting caused by hypoglycemia. When athletes engage in strenuous exercise, anaerobic metabolism leads to lactate buildup, causing muscle soreness; monitoring lactate levels can guide subsequent exercise. Urea nitrogenous small molecule levels can serve as an indicator of an athlete's metabolic rate and can also reflect kidney function. pH levels can indicate metabolic alkalosis.
[0074] Sweat, as a bodily fluid, contains various metabolic products and electrolytes, and its composition can reflect physiological indicators. Furthermore, sweat collection, as a typical non-invasive method, can facilitate the real-time, non-invasive detection of physiological indicators.
[0075] Taking electrochemical detection equipment as an example, commercially available electronic sweat detection products have the advantages of integrating multiple functions and continuously detecting sweat physiological indicators. However, these products are bulky and poorly portable. Their large size and weight make them uncomfortable to wear during exercise, potentially affecting the user's experience. Furthermore, they are expensive, complex in structure, and require cumbersome manufacturing processes. Priced around 1000 yuan, these products offer low cost-effectiveness for non-professional athletes and are not widely available. Moreover, these products incorporate multiple electronic data acquisition and processing units, requiring sophisticated manufacturing processes and making mass production difficult. They also require regular calibration, making maintenance cumbersome. The activity of enzymes in the detection module changes with environmental and temporal factors, and impurities accumulate over long-term use. Therefore, regular calibration and maintenance are necessary to ensure accurate results. Users must also manually set various parameters, reducing ease of use. Because users need to input personalized data before use, the user experience is poor, lacking convenience and speed.
[0076] Electrochemical sweat testing patches have market value due to their small size, light weight, high sensitivity, and accuracy. However, the manufacturing process of these patches based on electrochemical methods is relatively complex and costly, making them less consumer-friendly for athletes. Furthermore, the results of these sweat testing patches are often displayed on external devices rather than the patches themselves, requiring athletes to carry their phones to view the results, which is inconvenient.
[0077] All of the above indicates that electrochemical sweat detection methods are not suitable for the daily detection of sweat physiological indicators by athletes.
[0078] Further research by researchers revealed that colorimetric sweat detection is cost-effective and easy to use. In related technologies, colorimetric sweat detection patches made of fabrics and fibers can obtain physiological information through color comparison.
[0079] However, the fabrication of colorimetric detection patches for sweat on textiles and fibers is complex.
[0080] Therefore, this application provides a detection patch comprising a base layer and a colorimetric detection layer. The colorimetric detection layer is disposed on one side of the base layer in the thickness direction; the detection layer includes a carrier and a colorimetric detection part, the colorimetric detection part being disposed on the side of the carrier opposite to the base layer. Both the base layer and the colorimetric detection layer are paper base layers. By setting the base layer and the colorimetric detection layer as paper base layers, the paper base layer can be processed through simple cutting, folding, and lamination processes. This makes the base layer and the colorimetric detection layer easy to process and produce, reducing the complexity of the detection patch preparation.
[0081] Colorimetric detection layers indicate the presence or concentration changes of substances in sweat through color changes. The paper-based material of the colorimetric detection layer allows for rapid absorption and fixation of chemical reagents, and also contributes to the uniformity of chemical reagent coating, thereby improving the accuracy and consistency of the detection patch.
[0082] Furthermore, paper-based detection patches have the advantages of small size and high portability. Athletes do not feel the wearer's body during exercise, and it is unlikely to affect their physical sensations; paper-based detection patches are also low in cost and simple to manufacture.
[0083] The technical solution of this application and how the technical solution of this application solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. These specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments. The embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0084] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this application embodiment provides a detection patch, including a base layer 100 and a colorimetric detection layer 200. The colorimetric detection layer 200 is disposed on one side of the base layer 100 in the thickness direction; the colorimetric detection layer 200 includes a carrier and a colorimetric detection part, the colorimetric detection part being disposed on the side of the carrier opposite to the base layer 100.
[0085] Both the base layer 100 and the colorimetric detection layer 200 are paper base layers.
[0086] For example, the base layer 100 provides physical support and structural integrity for the entire detection patch, maintaining the shape and stability of the detection patch.
[0087] Taking the detection patch for sweat as an example, the colorimetric detection layer 200 indicates the presence or concentration changes of substances in sweat through color changes. In this way, the detection patch can detect changes in sweat substances in real time, providing immediate physiological information feedback, and is suitable for athletes, patients, or people who need to monitor physiological indicators.
[0088] The substances include glucose, urea, lactic acid, and pH.
[0089] In addition, the detection patch analyzes sweat rather than bodily fluids such as blood, reducing invasiveness and discomfort for the user.
[0090] For example, by setting the base layer 100 and the colorimetric detection layer 200 as a paper base layer, the paper base layer can be processed by simple cutting, folding and lamination processes, which reduces the preparation complexity of the base layer 100 and the colorimetric detection layer 200, and reduces the preparation complexity of the detection patch.
[0091] Compared to fabric-based testing patches, fabrics and fibers may require more pretreatment steps to ensure uniform coating of the test reagent. In contrast, the paper-based colorimetric detection layer 200 can be prepared using simple coating or printing techniques. These processes are relatively simple and do not require complex equipment or multiple steps. Furthermore, fabrics and fibers may require more complex cutting and sewing processes to form the desired shape of the testing patch, while paper is easy to cut and shape, and can be quickly produced in the desired shape using simple processes such as die-cutting.
[0092] Among them, the test reagents refer to the test reagents used by the colorimetric detection unit to detect sweat substances and perform color development.
[0093] Furthermore, the paper substrate can be enhanced with chemical treatments or physical modifications to improve its specific functions, such as increasing hydrophilicity, hydrophobicity, or specific chemical reactivity, thereby meeting diverse needs. Depending on the specific testing requirements, the paper substrate can be customized with different thicknesses, densities, and surface properties.
[0094] Since both the base layer 100 and the colorimetric detection layer 200 are made of paper, the paper base layer is lightweight and soft, conforming well to the human skin and providing a comfortable wearing experience. At the same time, the paper base layer has good breathability, making it suitable for prolonged wear. Furthermore, the paper base layer is relatively environmentally friendly, being biodegradable or recyclable, reducing its impact on the environment.
[0095] Furthermore, the colorimetric detection layer 200 indicates the presence or concentration changes of substances in sweat through color changes. The paper-based colorimetric detection layer 200 can quickly absorb and fix the test reagents, and the paper-based colorimetric detection layer 200 helps to ensure the uniformity of the test reagent coating, thus improving the detection accuracy and consistency of the test patch.
[0096] Understandably, the detection patch can be used to detect sweat as well as other liquid samples.
[0097] As one feasible implementation, the base layer 100 includes release paper. During transportation and storage, the release paper protects the test patch from dust, moisture, and other environmental factors. The base layer 100 serves to shield against light and oxygen, extending shelf life. Release paper is typically low-cost, suitable for large-scale production, and provides a cost-effective solution.
[0098] As one feasible implementation, the carrier includes silicone paper. Silicone paper is inert to most chemicals and does not readily react with the test reagents in the colorimetric detection unit, thereby ensuring the accuracy and stability of the detection.
[0099] In addition, silicone paper is easy to cut, die-cut and process, making it suitable for mass production and customized needs.
[0100] As one feasible implementation, the colorimetric detection unit includes glass fiber filter paper. The glass fiber filter paper has excellent adsorption capacity, effectively absorbing sweat and test reagents, ensuring sufficient contact between sweat and the test reagents in the colorimetric detection unit, thereby improving the sensitivity and accuracy of the detection. Simultaneously, the glass fiber filter paper is breathable, which helps sweat to be quickly and evenly distributed in the colorimetric detection unit, improving the detection efficiency of the detection patch.
[0101] In addition, glass fiber materials are inert to most chemicals and do not readily react with test reagents, which helps maintain the stability and reliability of the test patch results.
[0102] For example, the colorimetric detection unit is fitted tightly into the small holes provided on the carrier by friction. The carrier has four small holes, each with a diameter of about 3 mm, symmetrically distributed in a two-upper-two-lower configuration, with a center-to-center distance of about 7 mm between adjacent holes.
[0103] As one feasible implementation, the detection patch also includes a permeation layer 300, which is disposed between the colorimetric detection layer 200 and the base layer 100. The permeation layer 300 acts as a buffer layer, preventing excessive sweat from directly contacting the colorimetric detection layer 200 and avoiding dilution or rinsing of the test reagents in the colorimetric detection layer 200, thus affecting the test results. Simultaneously, the permeation layer 300 can block impurities or particulate matter from entering the colorimetric detection layer 200, reducing interference from impurities on the test results.
[0104] The permeation layer 300 can effectively control the flow speed and direction of sweat or other liquids from the base layer 100 to the colorimetric detection layer 200, ensuring uniform distribution of sweat and thus improving the accuracy and consistency of the detection patch.
[0105] In addition, the penetration layer 300 can increase the overall structural strength of the detection patch and prevent damage caused by bending or stretching during use.
[0106] As one possible implementation, the detection patch also includes a second connector. The second connector is disposed on the side of the colorimetric detection layer 200 near the permeation layer 300, and the colorimetric detection layer 200 and the permeation layer 300 are connected by the second connector.
[0107] For example, the second connector can be medical waterproof double-sided tape. The width of the waterproof double-sided tape is 3 mm. The connector ensures tight adhesion between the periphery of the permeation layer 300 and the periphery of the carrier of the colorimetric detection layer 200.
[0108] As one feasible implementation, the permeation layer 300 is a paper base layer. As the permeation layer 300, the paper base layer has good liquid absorption, effectively controlling the flow and distribution of sweat or other liquids, ensuring that the liquid is evenly transferred to the colorimetric detection layer 200. At the same time, the paper base layer 300 is lightweight, not significantly increasing the weight of the detection patch, thus improving the portability and comfort of the detection patch.
[0109] As one feasible implementation, the permeation layer 300 includes cotton fiber filter paper. The cotton fiber filter paper has excellent liquid absorption properties, enabling it to quickly absorb and transfer sweat, ensuring that sweat can permeate evenly into the colorimetric detection unit. Simultaneously, the cotton fiber filter paper can effectively filter out larger particles and impurities, ensuring that only liquid samples enter the colorimetric detection unit, thus improving the detection accuracy of the detection patch.
[0110] Furthermore, cotton fiber filter paper is biocompatible and will not adversely affect the skin or samples, making it suitable for applications involving direct skin contact. The soft nature of cotton fibers makes it more comfortable when in contact with the skin, suitable for testing patches worn for extended periods.
[0111] Cotton fiber filter paper is renewable and biodegradable, meets environmental protection requirements, and reduces environmental impact.
[0112] As one possible implementation, the detection patch also includes a transparent overlay layer 500, which is disposed on the side of the colorimetric detection layer 200 opposite to the base layer 100.
[0113] For example, when the test patch is in storage, the transparent cover layer 500 can effectively protect the colorimetric test layer 200 from external physical damage, contamination and moisture, thus extending the service life of the test patch.
[0114] During the use of the testing patch, because the transparent overlay 500 is transparent, the overlay allows users to clearly observe the color change of the colorimetric detection layer 200, ensuring intuitive reading of the test results.
[0115] In addition, the transparent overlay 500 increases the overall structural strength of the detection patch, making it more resistant to wear and tear during use.
[0116] For example, the side of the transparent overlay 500 facing the colorimetric detection layer 200 is adhesive.
[0117] As one possible implementation, the transparent overlay 500 is made of materials including polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene, and polypropylene.
[0118] Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is waterproof, effectively preventing external moisture or liquids from penetrating the colorimetric detection layer 200, thus avoiding contamination of the detection patch during storage. Simultaneously, PET is chemically stable and will not react with the chemical reagents in the colorimetric detection layer 200, ensuring the accuracy of the test results.
[0119] In addition, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is transparent, allowing users to clearly observe the color change of the colorimetric detection layer 200, making it easy to read the test results intuitively.
[0120] Polypropylene has a low density, which makes the testing patch lightweight, easy to carry, and easy to use. Polypropylene also has chemical stability.
[0121] Polyethylene is tough and can withstand a certain degree of physical deformation without damage. Its waterproof properties ensure the testing patch functions properly in humid environments. Polyethylene is resistant to chemicals, ensuring compatibility with the colorimetric testing layer 200.
[0122] As one feasible implementation, the detection patch also includes an isolation layer 400. The isolation layer 400 is disposed between the permeable layer 300 and the base layer 100.
[0123] The isolation layer 400 is provided with mounting holes, and the permeable layer 300 contacts the base layer 100 through the mounting holes.
[0124] For example, the isolation layer 400 provides double protection against sweat seeping back into the skin; at the same time, the isolation layer 400 helps to enhance the overall seal of the detection patch and prevent external environmental factors (such as moisture and dust) from interfering with the color detection layer 200.
[0125] The design of the isolation layer 400 simplifies the assembly process of the detection patch, making the installation of the colorimetric detection layer 200 and the penetration layer 300 more convenient and efficient.
[0126] The length of the mounting hole ranges from 1 to 2 cm, and the width ranges from 0.5 to 1.5 cm.
[0127] As one possible implementation, the detection patch also includes a first connector; the first connector is disposed on the side of the permeation layer 300 near the isolation layer 400, and the permeation layer 300 and the isolation layer 400 are connected by the first connector.
[0128] For example, the first connector can be medical-grade waterproof double-sided tape. The width of the waterproof double-sided tape is 3mm. The edges of the mounting hole and the edges of the permeable layer 300 are tightly adhered by the medical-grade waterproof double-sided tape.
[0129] As one feasible implementation method, the isolation layer 400 is a paper base layer.
[0130] For example, the paper base layer can be processed through simple cutting, folding and lamination processes, which reduces the complexity of the preparation of the isolation layer 400 and the complexity of the preparation of the detection patch.
[0131] As one feasible implementation, the insulating layer 400 includes silicone paper. The silicone paper material prevents sweat from seeping back onto the skin, providing dual protection on top of the water-locking effect of the glass fiber filter paper material.
[0132] As one feasible implementation, the number of colorimetric detection units is multiple.
[0133] Multiple colorimetric detection units allow for the simultaneous detection of various substances. This enables the detection patch to provide more comprehensive analytical results, suitable for complex physiological or environmental assays. Furthermore, the substances detected by multiple colorimetric detection units can be the same, allowing for repeated detection of the same substance, cross-validation of results, improved accuracy and reliability, and reduced errors.
[0134] For example, the preparation process of the colorimetric detection unit is as follows: first, liquid detection reagent is dropped onto glass fiber filter paper, and after the detection reagent dries, the glass fiber filter paper carrying the detection reagent forms the colorimetric detection unit.
[0135] In some embodiments, multiple colorimetric detection units are arranged at intervals along the extension plane of the carrier. This interval arrangement optimizes the space utilization of the carrier, ensuring that each colorimetric detection unit has sufficient space to react and display results, thus avoiding mutual interference. By arranging multiple colorimetric detection units at intervals, cross-interference between different colorimetric detection units can be effectively reduced, ensuring that the results of each colorimetric detection unit are independent and accurate.
[0136] In other embodiments, the multiple colorimetric detection units are made of different materials and are used to detect different substances.
[0137] By using colorimetric detection units made of different materials, the detection patches can simultaneously detect multiple different types of substances, such as pH values, specific ions, enzyme activity, and metabolites, adapting to a wider range of application needs. Thus, based on specific customer application requirements, different materials can be selected and combined to customize the detection patch design to meet specific detection requirements.
[0138] The colorimetric detection section is made of a test reagent used to detect sweat and produce color.
[0139] For example, during the use of the detection patch, the base layer 100 of the detection patch is peeled off, and the detection patch is attached to clean skin, with the transparent cover layer 500 facing upwards. After continuous exercise for a period of time, sweat flows through the permeation layer 300 to the colorimetric detection layer 200. Different colorimetric detection sections in the colorimetric detection layer 200 monitor the sweat. The sweat develops color in the colorimetric detection sections, and the degree of color development is identified and analyzed by the naked eye and compared with a color chart to obtain the index values of glucose, lactic acid, urea, and pH in the sweat.
[0140] For example, the thickness of the base layer 100 ranges from 0.05mm to 0.15mm.
[0141] In some embodiments, the thickness of the base layer 100 is 0.1 mm.
[0142] As one feasible implementation, the colorimetric detection unit has a second pore, the pore diameter D2 of which satisfies: 0.5μm≤D2≤1.5μm.
[0143] For example, when the pore size of the second aperture is between 0.5μm and 1.5μm, the colorimetric detection unit can lock sweat and the material of the colorimetric detection unit, effectively keeping the material of the colorimetric detection unit inside the colorimetric detection unit and preventing it from being lost or diffused to other areas, thereby ensuring the accuracy and sensitivity of the detection.
[0144] Optionally, 0.5μm ≤ D2 ≤ 1.0μm, or 1.0μm ≤ D2 ≤ 1.5μm, or 0.8μm ≤ D2 ≤ 1.2μm. Alternatively, D2 can be 0.5μm, 0.6μm, 0.7μm, 0.8μm, 0.9μm, 1.0μm, 1.1μm, 1.2μm, 1.3μm, 1.4μm, or 1.5μm.
