DEVICE FOR DETERMINATION OF AN ANALYTE IN A BODY FLUID
摘要
<p>A strip for testing for the presence of an analyte generally comprises a support member which contains a spreading layer and a reagent layer, and a capillary tube in communication with the support layer and spreading layer for transporting a sample of body fluid thereto. A method of testing a fluid for the presence or concentration of an analyte is also provided which generally includes providing a test strip with a support member, a spreading layer, and a reagent layer on the spreading layer. A capillary tube is provided on the support member whereby a fluid containing an analyte to be tested is introduced into the tube and flows through the tube to the spreading layer and contacts the reagent layer.</p>
