Abstract

A portable biochemical measurement device including a measurement main body containing an enzyme sensor holder for an enzyme sensor. A cover, mounted on the measurement main body, covers the enzyme sensor holder. The cover contains a chamber filled with a liquid medium to maintain the moisture of the enzyme sensor. Inside the cover are a cartridge and packing, which form the chamber containing the liquid medium. The enzyme sensor holder is inserted into the cover through the packing so that the enzyme sensor is immersed in the liquid medium thereby keeping the enzyme sensor moist.
