Measuring principle
The
smartLAB
® sprint
Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose System is de-
signed to allow rapid measurement of blood glucose by using an
electrochemical biosensor technology. This system employs a dis-
posable dry reagent strip technology, based on the glucose oxidase
method for glucose determination.
Each test strip features an electrode containing the glucose oxidase
from aspergillus niger. A capillary blood sample is applied to the
collecting area of the strip, and is automatically drawn into the
reaction zone, where the glucose oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of
glucose to produce glyconic acid. During the reaction, a mediator
transfers electrons to the electrode surface and generates a cur-
rent. The amount of the current is proportional to the amount of
glucose present in the blood sample. The glucose concentration
is measured by your
smartLAB
® sprint
meter and displayed on the
screen after 5 seconds.
Intended use
This blood glucose meter is a self-test IVD medical equipment and
intended for both home testing and for professional use to monitor
the blood glucose (B-D-glucose) value from capillary whole blood.
It is used outside the body only (In-vitro diagnostic use). The meter
should be used only
smartLAB
®
pro
blood glucose test strips. Testing
is not valid on neonatal blood specimen.
