This section provides technical information on your Dario™ System.

HoW THe GluCoSe MeTer WorkS

The Dario™ system determines the amount of glucose in fresh capillary blood 

using electrochemical biosensor technology. An electrical current is generated by 

the reaction of glucose with the reagent on the test strip (glucose oxidase). The 

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

in the blood sample. The glucose meter detects the current and converts it into a 

blood glucose reading.
