Embodiment Construction

[0011] Certain terminology is used herein for convenience only and should not be considered limiting of the embodiments of the systems and methods for a combined strip detection and heating system in an electrochemical test strip. Essentially, the test strip includes a test strip detection system which is also used as a heating element for the sample. In many embodiments, the system tests for glycated hemoglobin (A1C) and hemoglobin (Hb). In many embodiments, the AlC sample must be heated to digest the sample, and this is accomplished via a combined strip detection and heating system in the electrochemical test strip.

[0012] In many embodiments, an important functional step of the assay is heating the prepared AlC sample to digest hemoglobin prior to contact with the electrode area.

[0013] In order to meet the goals of cost and ease of use, biosensor test strips are required to be highly integrated self-functional components in the overall product design. Similar to the ...

Abstract

A system for testing for an analyte includes a test strip. The test strip includes a test strip detection conductor. The test strip includes a first flow path, the first flow path including a heating area, the test strip detection conductor in the heating area, the test strip detection conductor configured to be activated to heat a sample in the heating area.

Description

Background technique [0001] In many cases, physicians, consumers and medical professionals wish to test for multiple analytes. While lab testing is easy for users to perform, such testing requires users to send samples and results are often not ready quickly. Therefore, a point-of-care (POC) test system is needed. Some of the biggest factors influencing the sale and use of POC test systems are the convenience, disposability, and ease of use offered by the variety of systems. Therefore, a system that provides this factor is highly desirable. Contents of the invention [0002] In one embodiment, a system for testing an analyte includes a test strip. The test strip includes a test strip detection conductor. The test strip includes a first flow path that includes a heating region in which a test strip detection conductor is located, the test strip detection conductor being configured to be activated to heat a sample in the heating region. In one alternative, the test strip ...
