A reagentless whole-blood analyte detection system includes an infrared radiation source, a detector, and a sample element (700, 800). The sample element (700, 800) includes an elongate member (705, 802), a first sample ce ll wall (716), a second sample cell wall (715), a cover (720), and a sample supply passage (750, 815). The first sample cell wall in part defines a firs t sample cell (740). The first and second sample cell walls comprise materials that transmits a substantial portion of radiation in a range of wavelengths between about 6 ~m and about 12 ~m. The cover (720) at least partially defin es at least one of the first sample cell (740) and the second sample cell (745) . The sample supply passage comprises a first branch (755) and a second branch (760). The first branch of the sample supply passage extends from the openin g (735) to the first sample cell. The second branch of the sample supply passa ge extends from the first sample cell to the second sample cell. |
