Abstract
An analyte, system, strip and method are described. In one example, an analyte test strip is provided that includes a substrate, electrically conductive material and an isolated portion of the electrically conductive material. The substrate has a generally planar surface that extends from a first end to a second end. The electrically conductive material is disposed on the generally planar surface to define a plurality of electrodes spaced apart from each other. The isolated portion of the electrically conductive material is disposed between at least two electrodes so that the isolated portion is not in electrical communication with the plurality of electrodes.
