The PCL Care Glucose Test Vial Strips are intended for use with specific PCL Care Blood Glucose Meters (such as models AC-301 and AC-301B) for the self-monitoring of blood glucose levels. They are packaged in a protective vial (container) to offer a convenient, portable, and durable storage solution.
Key Features and Specifications
- Accurate and Fast Results: The strips utilize advanced electrochemical enzyme technology and a nine-pin electrode design for precise readings within approximately 5 seconds.
- Vial Packaging: The strips are stored in a compact, securely sealed vial to protect them from humidity and other environmental factors, helping maintain their quality and a good shelf life.
- No Coding Required: The strips feature a “no-coding” design, which eliminates a manual step in the testing process, simplifying use and reducing potential errors.
- Minimal Blood Sample: They require only a small sample size (0.6 µL) of capillary whole blood, making the testing experience less painful.
- Compatibility: The strips are strictly for use with compatible PCL Care glucose meters.
- Measurement Range: They can detect glucose levels in a wide range, typically from 10 to 600 mg/dL.
- Quantity: They are commonly available in packs of 50 or 100 strips per box (often two vials of 50 strips each).
Usage and Storage Guidelines
- Storage: Store the vial in a cool, dry place, away from direct heat and sunlight. Do not refrigerate.
- After Opening: Users should write the discard date (typically 3-6 months after first opening) on the vial label and discard any remaining strips after that date to ensure accuracy.
- Usage: After removing a strip, immediately cover the vial tightly to avoid losing efficiency. Each test strip is for a single use only and must not be reused
