Test unit and test system for analyzing body fluids

摘要

The test unit for analyzing body fluids such as blood comprises a collecting element which has a microfluidic collecting area for the body fluid, and a test element which can be brought into fluidic connection with the collecting area by deflecting a transfer part of the collecting element in order to transfer body fluid. The transfer part is pre-tensioned against a holding-down device and the deflection of the transfer part towards the test element can be triggered by releasing the holding-down device.
