Apparatus for measuring biomaterial and method for manufacturing same
First Claim
1. An apparatus for measuring a biomaterial, comprising:
- a first substrate having a recess formed in an upper surface thereof;
a second substrate having a plurality of reaction electrodes in which a biochemical reaction of a sample occurs and a plurality of delivery electrodes transmitting a signal generated by the biochemical reaction to a detector; and
a reaction reagent located in the recess and causing the biochemical reaction with the sample,wherein the second substrate is located in the recess and attached to the first substrate such that a reaction chamber is formed between a lower surface of the second substrate and a bottom surface of the recess, the reaction electrodes are directed toward the bottom surface of the recess in the reaction chamber, and a vent slit is formed between a side wall of the recess and a side edge surface of the second substrate, andthe first and second substrates are attached to form a sample inlet.

Abstract
The present invention relates to an apparatus for measuring biomaterial and a method for manufacturing thereof. The apparatus of the present invention comprises: a first substrate having a recess in one side thereof; a second substrate having a plurality of reaction electrodes where a biochemical reaction of a biomaterial occurs, and a plurality of delivery electrodes delivering signals from the reaction to a detector; and reaction reagents located in the recess causing the reaction with the biomaterial. The second substrate is attached to the first substrate such that a portion of the recess forms a sample-inlet, the recess cooperates with at least one edge of the second substrate to form at least one vent slit, and the reaction electrodes are directed toward the recess. Such apparatus of the present invention enables air in the capillary to be thoroughly and quickly discharged to the outside with biomaterial-introduction, thereby increasing the speed of the biomaterial-introduction.
