BIOSENSOR

摘要

A biosensor in accordance with the present invention comprises: an electrically insulating base plate; an electrode system comprising at least a measuring electrode and a counter electrode formed on the base plate; a cover member which is joined to the base plate to form a sample solution supply pathway for supplying a sample solution to the electrode system between the cover member and the base plate; and a reaction reagent carried at a position which is exposed to the sample solution supply pathway. The cover member comprises a cover which is disposed at a position opposite to the electrode system formed on the base plate and a spacer which is inserted between the cover and the base plate, the spacer having a slit for forming the sample solution supply pathway, the cover has an air vent communicating with the slit of the spacer, and a part of the cover facing the air vent and constituting the ceiling of the sample solution supply pathway protrudes at its center toward the air vent relative to the side walls of the sample solution supply pathway.
