The Built-in Blood Glucose Meter
Operating Principle
The integrated blood glucose test meter uses an electrochemical biosensor
containing glucose oxidase and detects β-d glucose in a blood sample. When the
blood sample touches the edge of the test strip, the strip automatically absorbs it
and reacts with the chemical reagent in the reaction area. The chemical reaction
causes a change in current, which is measured to yield the glucose concentration.
Important Tips:
Prior to testing, use either alcohol or soapy water to disinfect
the sampling site. Use warm water to increase blood flow if
necessary. Dry your hands and the sampling site, ensuring that
there is no soap residue remaining.

Application
It is used to determine blood glucose concentrations in
whole fresh capillary blood. It can be used for both self-
testing and professional use. Test results can be used to
manage blood sugar levels, but should not be used for
the diagnosis of diabetes
Blood Sampling
Before testing, become familiar with how to collect
blood and choose a clean and dry place to conduct the
test.
