Abstract: A measuring system according to the present invention includes a biosensor 2, and a measuring device 1 capable of assaying a specified component in a biological sample applied to the sensor 2. An announcement device 22 indicates a measuring procedure or a measurement result in the measuring device 1 by voice or the like by being combined with the measuring device 1.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a concentration measuring apparatus, a test strip for the concentration measuring apparatus, a biosensor system and a method for forming terminals of the test strip, whereby a component to be measured can be measured by the test strip fit to the target component to be measured. A type judgement electrode is provided separately from a positive electrode and a negative electrode in a measuring apparatus so as to judge the type of a set test strip with the measuring apparatus. Thus only when a test strip matching the measuring apparatus is set, the type judgement electrode is electrically connected to a terminal of the set test strip, enabling the measuring apparatus to measure a component to be measured in a liquid test sample.

Abstract: A measuring system according to the present invention comprises a biosensor 2, a measuring device 1 being capable of assaying a specified component in a biological sample applied to the sensor 2 as dotted with high accuracy, and an optional device 22 which notifies a measuring procedure or a measurement result in the measuring device 1 by voice or the like by being combined with the measuring device 1.

Abstract: A blood measuring instrument for measuring a specific component of blood. The instrument has a platelike chip (2) for sucking sampled blood, and a measuring instrument body (1) including a connector (3) into which the chip (2) is plugged. The chip (2) has an enzyme electrode for delivering a response current when the enzyme reacts with a specific component of the blood. The measuring instrument body (1) includes two sets of connection terminals (21, 22) capable of being in contact with lead terminals on the chip (2), and the connection terminals (21, 22) of each set are opposed to each other. Therefore, the chip (2) can be plugged into the connector (3) and one of the connection terminals of each set can be brought into contact with the lead terminal even if the chip is upside down.
