Test Principle

Your system measures the amount of sugar (glucose) in whole blood. The 

glucose testing is based on the measurement of electrical current generated

the current, calculates the blood glucose level, and displays the result. The 

strength of the current produced by the reaction depends on the amount of 

glucose in the blood sample.
