Abstract:
An auto-calibration system for diagnostic test strips is described for presenting data individually carried on each test strip readable by a diagnostic meter. The test strip meter may provide a predetermined varying resistance on one strip or a plurality of varying resistances from strip lot to strip lot.

Claim (Index 14):
A method of making a plurality of test strips, the method comprising:\n forming a plurality of test strip structures on one sheet, each of said test strip structures including: (a) a sample chamber; (b) an electrically insulating layer with a proximal region and a distal region; (c) a conductive pattern comprising including a plurality of electrodes formed on said sheet, and a plurality of electrical strip contacts formed on said sheet, a portion of which are electrically connected to said plurality of electrodes; (d) a set of electrical strip contacts individually electrically isolated to form a discrete set of contacting pads formed on said sheet distally of and electrically isolated from said plurality of electrodes, each contacting pad of the set of contacting pads having either a first or second predetermined electrical value, the first and second predetermined value being different from one another, the first and second predetermined electrical values associated with the contacting pads forming a machine-readable pattern readable to identify data particular to the test strip, wherein at least one of the contacting pads is configured to establish a common connection to ground or a voltage source configured to reverse polarity; and separating said test strip structures into said plurality of test strips.
