Abstract
Strips, particularly test strips and adapters for test strips, for use in meters for the electrochemical measurement of analyte in a sample material and in particular the glucose concentration of a sample of blood. The strips comprise a plurality of working connectors, for interfacing with the meter, coupled to one or more working electrodes. The strips are of particular use in adapting multi-input meters for single input use.
