Abstract: A disposable device for analyzing body fluid especially for blood sugar tests includes a container which can be inserted into a measuring apparatus, a sampling member provided in the container to pierce skin of a body part and sample body fluid, and a test member for receiving body fluid obtained by the skin-piercing. In one form, the test member is fixed in a retaining chamber of the container, and the sampling member is configured in the same retaining chamber such that it is separated at a distance from the test member in an initial state and is in contact with the test member to transfer body fluid in a transfer state after the skin-piercing.

Abstract: A portable analysis appliance includes a housing and a magazine for holding test elements. A delivery device is provided for delivering the test elements from a first position in the interior of the magazine to a second position lying at least partially outside the magazine and inside the housing. The delivery of the test elements including a first movement out of the interior of the magazine and a second movement by means of a guide into a presentation position.

Abstract: A device for conducting a transmission measurement includes a system for generating a light wave consisting of a first and a second wavelength fraction, in addition to an optical channel guiding the light wave to a sample tube with a sample, wherein the light wave permeates the sample tube with a sample. The device also has a motion unit for producing a relative movement of the light wave along the sample tube. A receiver for receiving and separating the first and second wavelength fragments after the light wave has permeated the sample tube with a sample is also provided. A converter converts the first wavelength fraction into a first digital measuring value describing the degree of transmission in the first wavelength and converts the second wavelength fraction into a second digital measuring value describing the degree of transmission in the second wavelength.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (40) for conducting a transmission measurement, comprising a system (42, 43, 44) for generating a light wave consisting of a first and a second wavelength fraction, in addition to an optical channel (1) guiding the light wave to a sample tube (45) with a sample, wherein the light wave permeates the sample tube (45) with a sample. The device (40) also has a motion unit for producing a relative movement of the light wave along the sample tube (45). A receiver (47) for receiving and separating the first and second wavelength fragments after the light wave has permeated the sample tube (45) with a sample is also provided. A converter (50) converts the first wavelength fraction into a first digital measuring value (X) describing the degree of transmission in the first wavelength and converts the second wavelength fraction into a second digital measuring value (Y) describing the degree of transmission in the second wavelength.
