| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a system, method, and meter for determining the concentration of an analyte in a fluid sample provided on a test strip. The meter (10) may include a body (12), an optical reader (28), and a test strip holder (90). The body (12) has first (14) and second ends (16) and defines a longitudinal axis y extending between the first and second ends (14,16). The optical reader (28) may be coupled to the body (12) and adapted to analyze the analyte on the test strip. The test strip holder (90) may be coupled to the body (12) and include first and second arms (92,94). One of the optical reader (28) or the test strip holder (90) may be movable along the longitudinal axis of the body between a first position, in which the first and second arms (92,94) of the test strip holder (90) overlie the optical reader (28), and a second position, in which the optical reader (28) extends beyond the first and second arms (92,94) of the test strip holder (90). Such configuration allows to push the test strip against the optical reader (28). Pins (58, 60) are also disposed on the test strip holder (90) to grasp the extremities of the test strip and stretch said strip against the optical reader (28). |
