InventorsUS Classes422/55, Structured visual or optical indicator, per se422/68.1, Means for analyzing liquid or solid sample422/73, With coagulometer for agglutination, clotting, or prothrombin, or for particle (e.g., cell, etc.) counting, or volume or characteristics determination422/82.01, Measuring electrical property422/82.05Measuring optical property by using ultraviolet, infrared, or visible lightAttorney, Agent or FirmInternational ClassesG01N 33/00G01N 21/00 G01N 27/00 Abstract textA portable analytical device is provided for analysis of a component of a body fluid. A measuring facility within the device may carry out the analysis on a test element inserted therein. The test element may contain a reagent that reacts with a liquid sample of the body fluid when the test element is contacted thereby to produce a change that is characteristic of the analysis. A processor may process measuring values determined by the measuring facility to yield analytical measuring data taking into account calibration values. A standardized, wire-based computer interface may be provided on the analytical device via which the analytical device can be operated by a computer, the analytical measuring data can be transmitted from the analytical device to the computer, the analytical device can be supplied with electrical power by the computer, and the analytical device can provide software to be read-out by the computer. |
