  • Patent number: 8753493
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for measuring biomaterial and a method for manufacturing thereof. The apparatus of the present invention comprises: a first substrate having a recess in one side thereof; a second substrate having a plurality of reaction electrodes where a biochemical reaction of a biomaterial occurs, and a plurality of delivery electrodes delivering signals from the reaction to a detector; and reaction reagents located in the recess causing the reaction with the biomaterial. The second substrate is attached to the first substrate such that a portion of the recess forms a sample-inlet, the recess cooperates with at least one edge of the second substrate to form at least one vent slit, and the reaction electrodes are directed toward the recess. Such apparatus of the present invention enables air in the capillary to be thoroughly and quickly discharged to the outside with biomaterial-introduction, thereby increasing the speed of the biomaterial-introduction.

  • Publication number: 20120067722
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for measuring a biomaterial, comprising: a first substrate having a recess in one side thereof; a second substrate having reference and operating electrodes where a biochemical reaction of a biomaterial occurs, and first and second delivery electrodes delivering electric signals from the reaction to a detector; and reaction reagents fixed at the second substrate causing the reaction with the biomaterial, wherein the first or the second substrate has a tilted surface toward a sample-inlet in a height direction. The second substrate is attached to the first substrate such that a portion of the recess forms the sample-inlet, and the reference and operating electrodes are directed toward the recess. The tilted surface prevents the sample-inlet from being blocked by a finger of the user when introducing the biomaterial through the sample-inlet in the event the used substrate has three-dimensional structures with substantial thickness.
