First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising:
- a glucose monitoring apparatus comprising;
a connecting plug configured to mate with an audio jack phone port,wherein the audio jack phone port has at least three audio pins;
a first ring,wherein the first ring is positioned on the connecting plug, andwherein the first ring is configured to mate with a first audio pin of the audio jack phone port;
a second ring,wherein the second ring is positioned on the connecting plug, andwherein the second ring is configured to mate with a second audio pin of the audio jack phone port; and
a third ring,wherein the third ring is positioned on the connecting plug, andwherein the third ring is configured to mate with a third audio pin of the audio jack phone port;
wherein at least one of the first, second, and third rings of the connection plug is configured to receive power for the glucose monitoring apparatus from the audio jack phone port;
wherein at least one of the first, second, and third rings of the connection plug is configured to receive data from the audio jack phone port; and

Abstract
The invention is directed to a mobile hand held miniature laboratory system in general, and to fluid testing apparatus for performing a parameter measurement in a fluid sample and methods of use in particular. The apparatus comprising: a strip adapted to absorb a fluid sample and to produce a signal indicative of said parameter level in said sample; and adaptor adapted to connect said strip to a smart phone to allow delivery of the produced signal or a correlated signal to said smart phone for obtaining a measurement of said fluid parameter displayed on said smart phone, wherein said testing apparatus relies on said smart phone at least for power supply and display means. The fluid may be a physiological fluid such as blood, urine, saliva or amniotic fluid, or a non-physiological fluid such as fluid obtained from industrial pools for fish or algae growth, or entertainment swimming pools.
