Claim:
1. A biological component-measuring unit comprising: a substrate detachably mountable on a medical support device; fluid channels arranged on a surface of the substrate, the fluid channels comprising a biological component-measuring channel, a first diluent-supplying channel, a gas channel configured to introduce a gas and a gas-liquid separator, all of which are arranged on the surface of the substrate; and an engaging mechanism configured to detachably engage with the medical support device so that the biological component-measuring unit is attached to and detached from the medical support device, wherein: the biological component-measuring channel includes: the first diluent-supplying channel includes: the first diluent-supplying channel is configured to supply the diluent to the biological component-measuring channel within the biological component-measuring unit so that the diluent is mixed with the sample fluid before the sample fluid is supplied to the biological component sensor, the gas channel includes: the gas-liquid separator is disposed at a part downstream of a point where the diluent and the fluid are mixed and upstream of the biological component sensor, a window is formed in the substrate for receiving the first fluid transfer structure, the window being an opening passing through the substrate, the first fluid transferring section passes over the window, the second fluid transferring section passes over the window, and the third fluid transferring section passes over the window.
