Disclosed is an electrochemical biosensor having a sample introduction channel in which an insulator is employed to introduce a small amount of a sample uniformly and accurately and to adjust an area of a working electrode, thereby guaranteeing the accurate quantitative analysis of a sample. Provided with a sample collection barrier at a sample entrance, the biosensor allows a sample to be introduced at higher accuracy and to be analyzed with higher reproducibility and reliability.
Disclosed is an electrochemical biosensor measuring device which can be used together with an electrochemical biosensor. The biosensor measuring device comprises an electrical connection portion which is electrically connected with the electrodes of the biosensor upon the insertion of the biosensor there into, and a connector having a structure in which at least one light absorption or reflection path sequentially comprising a light emitter-production lot information identification portion-detector unit is provided to identify the production lot information recorded in the biosensor. The electrochemical biosensor measuring device can automatically identify the production lot information of the biosensor, encoded in the form of a hue or hole marks, upon the insertion of the electrochemical biosensor into the measuring device, thereby obviating the need to manually input the production lot information of the biosensor. Thus, inconvenience and the frequency of errors, which occur when a user personally inputs the production lot information, can be reduced, with the result that the measured values can be conveniently and accurately acquired.
