Abstract
Methods of fabricating devices for collecting a sample of physiological and for measuring a characteristic, e.g., an analyte concentration, of the sampled physiological sample. The devices are in the form of a test strip which include a biosensor and at least one skin-piercing element which is a planar extension of a portion of the biosensor. The fabrication methods provide various or forming the test strip and the skin-piercing element.
