Patent

CA 2465172

A test strip for detecting an analyte (e.g., blood glucose) in a liquid sample (e.g., whole blood) includes an analytical portion (e.g., a reagent pad), a first edge with a first edge indentation and a second edge with a second edge indentation. The test strip also includes a first capillary channel adapted for providing fluid communication between the first edge indentation and the analytical portion, as well as a second capillary channel adapted for providing fluid communication between the second edge indentation and the analytical portion. Furthermore, the first and second edges are in an opposing relationship (e.g., on left-hand and right-hand sides of the test strip). Also, a test strip and meter combination for detecting an analyte in a liquid sample. The combination includes a test strip with an analytical portion and first and second edges. The first and second edges of the test strip each include an edge indentation with a sample application region. The test strip also includes a first capillary channel adapted for providing fluid communication between the sample application region of the first edge indentation and the analytical portion, as well as a second capillary channel adapted for providing fluid communication between the sample application region of the second edge indentation and the analytical portion. The meter includes a test strip holder configured to receive the test strip in the absence of contact between the sample application regions of the first and second edge indentation and the test strip holder.
