    Abstract: A method for obtaining a bodily fluid sample, including providing a reel-to- reel tape carrying lancets non-circular in cross section along a major portion of their length, the tape having a supply section, a storage section and an activating section spanning between and translatable independently of the supply and storage sections; advancing the tape to position a first lancet adjacent a bend in the activating section of the tape with a sharp tip of the first lancet spaced from the tape; translating only the activating section with a mechanism without activating the supply and storage sections to pierce tissue with the sharp tip; and after the piercing, advancing the tape to bring the sharp tip closer to the tape. The supply and storage sections are respectively wrapped around supply and storage reels spaced apart from each other. Either the supply reel or the storage reel is configured to advance the tape.

    Abstract: A magazine (110) for use in an analytic test instrument (112) is proposed. The magazine (110) is embodied as replaceable magazine (110). The magazine (110) comprises a plurality of analytic aids (118) on a carrier tape (116). The analytic aids (118) can be made available in at least one application position (128) of the magazine (110) by means of the carrier tape (116). The magazine (110) furthermore has at least one supply reel (120) for holding regions of the carrier tape (116) with unused analytic aids (118) and at least one take-up reel (122) for holding regions of the carrier tape (116) with used-up analytic aids (118). The carrier tape (116) can be moved in a spooling direction (126) from the supply reel (120) to the take-up reel (122). The magazine (110) has a rewind lock (136) of the take-up reel (122). The magazine (110) furthermore has a tape release device (142), which is configured to make available a take-up reel tape reserve of the carrier tape (116) on the side of the application position (128) facing the take-up reel (122). The take-up reel tape reserve preferably enables a lifting movement (134) of an analytic aid (118) situated in the application position (128).

    Abstract: A lancet housing assembly (30; 400; 430; 452; 500; 600) includes a housing structure comprising multiple lancet compartments (40; 405; 444; 458; 505; 605). At least one of the lancet compartments comprises an outer facing side (64) and an inner facing side (66). A floor (70, 84; 424) extends between the outer facing side and the inner facing side (66). A reagent material (72; 426; 436; 478; 532; 650) is located on the floor and within the lancet compartment. A lancet structure (24; 406; 432; 450; 506; 606) is located in the at least one lancet compartment. The lancet structure comprises a skin penetrating end (90; 408; 434; 462; 508; 608) and a blood transport portion (92; 410; 464; 510; 610). The blood transport portion is arranged and configured to receive the amount of blood from the skin penetrating end and to carry the amount of blood away from the skin site and to the reagent material.
