Abstract

Test elements are disclosed for detecting at least one analyte concentration in a sample. The test elements are used for detecting one or more analytes such as metabolites in body fluids, especially glucose. The test elements correct for an interfering variable such as temperature and or hematocrit in a test element system via a correction factor based upon diffusion of at least one diffusable label.
