Assembly for receiving body fluids, and method for the production thereof
First Claim
1. Assembly for receiving body fluids comprising a sampling element which is provided with a lancing member for insertion into a body part and has a collecting area for collecting body fluid obtained by a puncture, wherein the collecting area is formed by a longitudinal slot which is elongated as a capillary and is open on both sides via side openings on the sampling element, wherein the lancing member has a distal end that is closed, and comprising a sample receiving element to which body fluid can be applied via the collecting area and provided with a test field for an analyte in the body fluid, wherein the longitudinal slot is separated from the sample receiving element in a collecting position of the sampling element and is in fluidic contact with the sample receiving element in a transfer position of the sampling element, and wherein a distance between the test field and the sampling element varies between the collecting position and the transfer position.

25. An assembly, comprising:
-
a sample receiving element having a test field; a lancing element guided by the sample receiving element, the lancing element having a slot with opposing side openings for collecting body fluid, wherein the lancing member has a distal end that is closed; the slot of the lancing element being moveable relative to the sample receiving element from a collecting position to a transfer position; at the collecting position the slot of the lancing element is extended from the sample receiving element for collecting the body fluid in the slot and the slot is unable to transfer the body fluid to the test field; and at the transfer position the slot of the lancing element is aligned with the test field and is able to transfer the body fluid from the slot to the test field. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31)
