INFRARED TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT OF STRIP

摘要

Provided are systems and methods that permit the direct assessment of temperature on an electrochemical test strip, including at the reaction site of the strip, through the inclusion of an infrared sensor within the biosensing instrument. Analyte measurement systems are provided in which an infrared sensor is used to assess temperature associated with a test strip, and the acquired temperature data is used to modulate data regarding an analyte in a biological sample, thereby providing a more accurate measurement of the analyte.
