  • Method for measuring amount of blood component in blood
    Patent number: 11959872
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for accurately measuring a blood component despite uneven distribution of blood introduced into a capillary. The measurement method according to the present invention is characterized in that a plurality of electrode systems for measuring the hematocrit are provided in a capillary of a biosensor to measure the hematocrit at different positions in the capillary. By measuring the hematocrit at the plurality of positions in the capillary as described above, the hematocrit can be measured mom accurately despite uneven distribution of blood introduced into the capillary.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 1, 2019
    Date of Patent: April 16, 2024
    Assignee: PHC Holdings Corporation
