Abstract
An examination system for bodily fluids includes a vessel-like examination unit having an opening, a sensor for examining the bodily fluids, and a bodily-fluids-oozing device. This system is further provided with a pump for decompressing the inside of the unit and an electromagnetic cross-valve for releasing the decompressed condition, or still further provided with humidifying means for supplying vapor inside the unit, in addition to the pump and the valve. As a result, the system produces a precise measurement with a little amount of bodily fluid.

9. A bodily-fluids-examination-system comprising:
-
a vessel-like examination unit having an opening in front;
decompressing means for decompressing an inside of said unit;
decompress-releasing-means for restoring a decompressed condition in said unit to atmospheric pressure;
a bodily-fluids-oozing-device;
a specimen collector disposed in said unit and facing the opening;
a sensor, having an electrode system for contacting with a specimen supplied from said specimen collector, for outputting information regarding the specimen as an electric signal from the electrode system;
determining means for determining a measured value of the specimen based on the electric signal;
a controller for controlling said decompressing means, said decompress-releasing-means and said sensor, wherein said system allows said decompress-releasing-means to function after said sensor outputs the electric signal.
