UNDERFILL DETECTION SYSTEM FOR A TEST SENSOR

摘要

A test sensor having a pair of electrodes and a reagent for electrochemically measuring the concentration of the ana- lyte in a liquid sample. The test sensor comprises a capil- lary channel for collecting the liquid sample and a conductor disposed outside the capillary channel. The conductor is in fluid communication with the capillary channel. The liquid test sample is collected and moved through the capillary chan- nel. The liquid test sample contacts the conductor when the capillary channel is substantially full to signal a full con- dition.
