Abstract
The ability to switch at will between amperometric measurements and potentiometric measurements provides great flexibility in performing analyses of unknowns. Apparatus and methods can provide such switching to collect data from an electrochemical cell. The cell may contain a reagent disposed to measure glucose in human blood.
Claims6
A test instrument for use with a human user and for use with an elongated test strip having at a first end an electrical connection point and at a second end an electrochemical cell, the test instrument comprising:
- a housing;
- an electrical connector at the housing, the connector disposed to form an electrical connection with the electrical connection point of an elongated test strip when inserted therein;
- a light source at the housing, the light source aimed to cast light upon the electrochemical cell of the elongated test strip, the light source illuminated in response to an input from a human user.
