[ For this purpose, the barcode reading unit 40 may include, but is not limited to, the validity period determiner 41, the usable period determiner 42, and the party user determiner 43, for example.

The validity period determiner 41 can determine whether or not the validity period of the plurality of biosensors 100 or each biosensor 100 is valid based on the validity period information included in the obtained identification information. If it is determined that the validity period for the biosensor 100 has been exceeded, the specimen analyzer 10 notifies the user of the validity period and the validity period in various ways, 100) can be prevented from being used.

The usable period determiner 42 may count the elapsed time after receiving the scanned bar code 2 based on the usable period information included in the obtained identification information to determine whether or not the usable period is displayed have. In the case of some biosensors 100, the user is advised to use the package 1 within a predetermined period of time when the package 1 is opened. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the user from obtaining an incorrect measurement / analysis result by determining whether or not the useable period of the sample analyzer 10 is performed.

To this end, if it is determined that the usable period for the biosensor 100 has been exceeded, the specimen analyzer 10 notifies the user of the availability period and the various conditions, It is possible to prevent the biosensor 100 from being used.

Based on the user information included in the obtained identification information, the party user determination unit (43) can determine whether or not the user connected to the sample analyzer (10) is a legitimate user. For example, as the user information, personal information about the party user may be included in the obtained identification information, and the party user determination unit 43 may include information on the user connected to the sample analyzer 10 and the acquired identification information It is possible to judge whether or not the user connected to the sample analyzer 10 is a legitimate user.

Therefore, when it is determined by the party user determination unit 43 that the user who is connected to the sample analyzer 10 is not a legitimate user, the party user determination unit 43 determines whether or not the user It is possible to control the sample analyzer 10 not to perform measurement and analysis. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent a user who does not have a proper authority to use the specific biosensor 100 from being used in connection with the specific biosensor 100.

In some embodiments, the party user judgment unit 43 can judge whether or not the user connected to the sample analyzing apparatus 10 is a legitimate user based on the use restriction information included in the obtained identification information. For example, since the information on the usable area is included as the usage restriction information, it may be necessary to restrict the use of the usable area other than the usable area. For example, when the information on the usable area is included in the identification information obtained as the use restriction information so that it can be used only in a specific area (for example, outside of the country), the party user determination part 43 includes the identification information (Global Positioning System) information of the specimen analyzer 10 to determine whether the plurality of the biosensors 100 or the respective biosensors 100 are purchased and used by the correct distribution route It is possible to determine whether or not the user connected to the sample analyzer 10 is a legitimate user.

In some embodiments, the biosensor management unit 230 may determine whether the user connected to the biosensor management system 200 is a legitimate user based on the usage restriction information included in the obtained identification information. For example, since the information on the usable area is included as the usage restriction information, it may be necessary to restrict the use of the usable area other than the usable area. For example, when the information on the usable area is included in the identification information obtained as the use restriction information so that it can be used only in a specific area (for example, outside of the country), the party user determination part 43 includes the identification information The global positioning system (GPS) information received from the specimen analyzer 10 is compared with the use restriction information of the plurality of biosensors 100 or each biosensor 100 is purchased and used by the correct distribution route It is possible to determine whether or not the user connected to the biosensor management system 200 is a legitimate user.

In addition, the biosensor management system 200 can determine whether the user connected to the biosensor management system 200 is a legitimate user based on the user information included in the obtained identification information. For example, as the user information, personal information about a party user may be included in the obtained identification information, and the party user determination unit 43 may acquire information about the user connected to the biosensor management system 200, By comparing the included user information, it is possible to determine whether the user connected to the biosensor management system 200 is a legitimate user.

In some embodiments, the biosensor management system 200 may determine whether a user connected to the biosensor management system 200 is a legitimate user based on usage restriction information included in the obtained identification information. For example, since the information on the usable area is included as the usage restriction information, it may be necessary to restrict the use of the usable area other than the usable area. For example, when the information on the usable area is included in the identification information obtained as the use restriction information so that it can be used only in a specific area (for example, outside of the country), the party user determination part 43 includes the identification information The global positioning system (GPS) information received from the specimen analyzer 10 is compared with the use restriction information of the plurality of biosensors 100 or each biosensor 100 is purchased and used by the correct distribution route It is possible to determine whether or not the user connected to the biosensor management system 200 is a legitimate user.

Next, referring to FIG. 7, it is possible to transmit a determination result of abnormality to the plurality of biosensors 100 or the biosensor 100 to the sample analyzer 10 (S40).

For example, if it is determined by the biosensor management system 200 that there is an abnormality in the biosensor 100, the determination result may be transmitted to the sample analyzer 10 through the transceiver 210, The biosensor 100 having the abnormality may not be used.

While the present invention has been described in connection with what is presently considered to be practical exemplary embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but, on the contrary, You will understand. It is therefore to be understood that the above-described embodiments are illustrative in all aspects and not restrictive.
