Abstract
The method includes: acquiring data a related to a temperature of a blood sample on a sensor chip, based on a dimension of a current flowing in the blood sample by applying a first voltage to the pair of electrodes in contact with the blood sample, the first voltage being set so as to reduce an effect of hematocrit on a temperature measurement result; acquiring data b related to the concentration of an analyte in the blood sample, based on a dimension of a current flowing in the blood sample by applying a second voltage that is equal to or less than the first voltage, utilizing a reaction mediated by an oxidoreductase that uses the analyte in the blood sample as a substrate; and measuring a concentration that determines the analyte concentration in the blood sample based on the data a and the data b.
