Accurex Xpress Gluco Blood Test Strip

Accurex Xpress Gluco Blood Test Strip is a set of glucose test strips that works on electroanalytical amperometry and is used to test your blood glucose levels. When blood is added to the Xpress Gluco test strip, the chemicals within the strip react with the blood to create a tiny electrical current. Your meter will read that current and display your blood glucose level.

Uses:To analyze blood glucose levels

Product Features and Specifications:

• Test principle: electroanalytical amperometry

• Designed for self-testing for both professional and home use

• Accurate results in just 5 seconds

• Uses only 0.5uL blood sample size

• System Measurement Range: 20-800 mg/dL

• Hemocrit Range: 25-55%

• Alternate site testing possible

• No coding required

• Compatible with Accurex glucometers only

• Each Xpress Gluco test strip contains the following: enzyme glucose oxidase (Aspergillus sp.) ≥ 1IU

• Xpress Gluco Test Strips measure glucose in whole capillary blood outside the body (in vitro diagnostic use)

• Use Xpress Gluco Test Strips only with the Xpress Gluco Blood Glucose Test System

• Xpress Gluco Test Strips are plasma calibrated to allow easy comparison of results with laboratory methods

• This system is not intended for use in the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus

• This system is not recommended for neonate blood samples

Result interpretation:

• Xpress Gluco Meter delivers equivalent plasma results and is displayed in mg/dL

• The meter's measurement range is 20-800mg/dL

• When blood is added to the Xpress Gluco test strip, the chemicals within the strip react with the blood to create a tiny electrical current

• Your meter will read that current and display your blood glucose level

Directions For Use:

• Use Xpress Gluco Test Strips only with fresh capillary whole blood

Test Preparation:

• Take a strip from the vial and close the vial immediately

• Insert the test strip into the test strip slot until it allows. When the strip is fully inserted, the meter turns on immediately and performs several self-checks

• After the meter is on, the flashing blood drop symbol will appear on the meter display

• Now, you can apply the blood sample to the test strip

Sample Collection:
To get a sample from your finger, proceed as follows:

• Wash your hands with soap and warm water and dry well

• Lance your skin with the lancing device

• Squeeze gently until you get a rounded drop of blood

• The blood sample must be at least 0.5µL to get an accurate result

Testing:

• While the blood drop symbol is flashing, touch and hold the top edge of the strip to the rounded drop of blood so it meets the test
  zone

• The strip draws the blood into the test zone

• Only apply blood while the blood drop symbol is flashing

• Hold the blood drop to the top edge of the test strip until the blood has filled the test zone and the meter beeps. The meter will then count down in seconds 4, 3, 2, and 1 on display

• If the test zone does not fill up, stop the test and retest with a new strip

Result:

• After 5 seconds, your glucose result will be displayed on the meter display with a beep. The result is automatically stored in the meter

• Turn the meter off by ejecting the test strip in a waste bin

• The used lancet and test strips are potentially biohazardous

• Please dispose of them carefully according to your local regulations

• Read the label carefully before use

Storage and Safety Information:

• Store the strips in their original vial in a cool, dry place between 0°-50° C (32° and 122° F)

• Keep away from direct sunlight

• Do not refrigerate or freeze

• Close the cap immediately when you take a strip from the vial. Use the strip immediately

• Check the expiry date on the vial, and discard the strips if it exceeds the expiry date
