Abstract:
1. A device for analyzing a biological liquid sample comprising: a composite body of a plurality of layers of flat materials defining two or more sample channels, the sample channels extending along a longitudinal dimension of the composite body and being configured for transporting the sample liquid from an application site to two or more measuring sites, wherein the plurality of layers of flat materials comprise a plurality of transport layers arranged in a stack-like manner between two support layers, the transport layers each comprise two sections having opposing edges which comprise side walls of the sample channels, the sides of the support layers that face the transport layers are coated with an electrode layer comprising an electrically conductive material, and the support layers are laterally displaced relative to one another in a step-like manner, such that the electrode layers comprise a connecting section extending beyond an adjacent transport layer in a lateral dimension, the lateral dimension being generally perpendicular to the longitudinal dimension of the composite body.
