Abstract

A measuring device for the amperometric measurement of test strips 12, each having a test field moistenable by a liquid to be investigated and having measuring electrodes associated with the test field. The device includes at least one test strip receiver 20 for the insertion of a test strip 12, first contact elements arranged in the region of the strip receiver 20 for contacting the measuring electrodes of a test strip 12 located in the strip receiver 20, and an evaluation and control circuit. The strip receiver 20 is formed with a separate unitary housing which on its external side has second external contact elements 50 electrically connected with the first internal contact elements. The external contact elements 50 are designed for contacting opposite contact elements 16 connected with the evaluation and control circuit.
