Abstract

See full text

The subject invention provides a simple sensor and an easy to handle biosensor measuring apparatus for the purpose of making measurements easily, rapidly and with high accuracy for specific components within a biological specimen such as blood. The biosensor of the subject invention is provided with a protrusion or a depression in a portion of a base having at least a measurement electrode and an opposing electrode. Also, the biosensor measuring apparatus is so configurated to have a mating means in the main body of the measuring apparatus freely supporting this biosensor to contact the said sensor's protrusion or depression, and further having the activating switch of the driving power supply located in this mating means. By means of these, it is possible to prevent wasteful measuring operations, as noted in the prior art biosensors, such as inserting the sensor backwards and making measurements with the sensor inserted backwards.
