摘要:
An analysis system is provided which comprises an integrated analysis device and a test strip magazine, for determining an analyte in a body fluid, wherein the analysis system comprises a first group comprising reusable components and a second group of components comprising a plurality of disposable articles. The second group includes non-electronic and electronic components, with critical interfaces configured between two or more such components, wherein non-electronic components can be disconnected from electronic components at a disconnection point. In one embodiment, critical interfaces are produced and tested during production of the analysis system.

The invention concerns a process for producing an analytical tape for liquid samples in which a rollable transport tape is provided with test fields that are spaced apart in the direction of the tape for analyzing the liquid samples. A multilayered test label tape is prefabricated from at least a detection film and an adhesive tape and subsequently the test fields are transferred as self-adhesive test labels from the test label tape onto the transport tape.

The invention relates to a method for producing combined puncturing and measuring devices for detection of an analyte in liquid. The combined puncturing and measuring devices generally comprise a support and a detection element. Recesses which define puncturing points are formed on one face of the band-shaped support material. A detection element is applied to the band-shaped support material. Individual puncturing/measuring disposable bodies are separated either singly or in groups from the band-shaped support material at a separating line.

The invention concerns a method for the photometric analysis of test elements with a detection zone which is stable towards positioning tolerances of the detection zone comprising the following steps: activating the first light source to irradiate a first region of the detection zone and detecting the light reflected from the detection zone or transmitted through the detection zone in order to generate a first detection signal (50), activating the second light source to irradiate a second region of the detection zone which is displaced relative to the first region in the direction of the positioning tolerance and detecting the light reflected from the detection zone or transmitted through the detection zone in order to generate a second detection signal (60), comparing the first and the second detection signal and determining whether the first and/or the second detection signal has been obtained by illuminating an area situated completely on the detection zone. The invention also concerns a device to carry out this method and a method for the photometric analysis of a test element with detection of sample application.

A device is disclosed for obtaining body fluid, in particular blood, comprising a lancing element having a tip for puncturing the skin of a body part and an actuator coupled with the lancing element for a forward and backward movement of the lancing element, where the lancing element can be inserted into the skin up to an optionally adjustable puncture position. The actuator is adapted to drive the lancing element forwardly to a penetration speed of at most 0.7 m/s when the lancing element penetrates the skin.

A system for determining an analyte in a body fluid includes a magazine comprising two partial magazines, one including chambers containing analysis elements having a sample contact zone and a reagent system containing a reagent, whose reaction with the body fluid results in a change of a variable, and another including chambers containing puncturing elements having a tip having a capillary channel, which forms a fluid connection between the tip and a sample transfer zone of the puncturing element. The system may also include an analysis instrument having a puncturing drive for driving a puncturing element on a movement path, a mounting for receiving the magazine such that one chamber of the magazine at a time is located in a functional position, in which a puncturing element in the chamber can be moved by the puncturing drive, and a measuring and evaluation apparatus for measuring the change of the variable.
摘要:
An analyte determination analysis system with a disposable integrated sample acquisition and analysis element is disclosed. A piercing element has a tip for generating a bodily puncture wound and a test strip having a body fluid sample receiving zone to perform an analysis on a body fluid sample. A reusable analysis instrument comprises a coupling unit that couples the integrated sample acquisition and analysis element to a drive that drives a piercing element in a piercing movement comprising two phases: a propulsion phase wherein the piercing element moves on a puncture path in a puncture direction and a retraction phase wherein the piercing element moves opposite to the puncture direction after reaching a reversal point. A measuring and analysis unit measures a variable characteristic for the determination of the analyte and determines a desired analysis result on the basis of the measurement. The sample receiving zone of the test strip forms a sample contact. The piercing element, located parallel to the test strip, moves on a movement path relative to the test strip a puncture path. The piercing element, located adjacent to the sample contact, has a capillary channel with a sample inlet for body fluid entry after the piercing and a sample outlet for body fluid exit. The piercing element movement has a sample transfer position wherein the sample outlet is adjacent to the sample receiving zone such that the body fluid may be transferred from the capillary channel through the sample outlet to the sample receiving zone.
