Claim Text:
1. An apparatus for analyzing sample fluids, comprising a sensor for measuring at least one value of a sample fluid, wherein the sensor has a sensor surface via which the measurement can be undertaken, the apparatus further comprising a carrier tape, with which in cooperation with the sensor surface at least one measuring cell for receiving sample fluid is formed between the sensor surface and a pocket or cavity formed in the carrier tape that has a small depth and hollow volume, wherein the depth and volume are dimensioned such that capillary forces alone are sufficient to draw the sample fluid into the pocket or cavity, further in addition to the pocket or cavity on the carrier tape, at least one regeneration agent for regenerating the sensor is contained in at least one void in the carrier tape, wherein the carrier tape is movable and configured such that the regeneration agent from the void can be applied on the sensor surface after the measurement has taken place.
