Abstract

See full text

A method for measuring analyte concentration in a body fluid involves taking reflectance readings from a first surface of a porous reagent-containing matrix both before and after a sample of the fluid has been applied to a second surface of the matrix. A sequence of reflectance measurements is initiated upon a predetermined drop in reflectance, which indicates that sample has reached the first surface. The analyte concentration is calculated from the sequence of reflectance measurements.
