With a 1-2 μL sample volume, Accu-Chek Active Test Strips measure blood glucose levels. Results populate on the meter screen within 5 seconds across a 10-600 mg/dL range. These strips facilitate both capillary and venous blood testing for daily monitoring.
Key Features
- Under-dosing Detection: Identifies insufficient blood volume to block inaccurate results. Prevents strip waste by flagging small drops immediately.
- Visual Color Check: Matches strip color against the vial label scale. Validates meter results through a manual visual backup.
- Out-of-Meter Dosing: Enables blood application while the strip remains detached. Lowers contamination risks during high humidity in BD.
- 5-Second Result Time: Processes glucose data in a five-second window. Provides rapid feedback during routine daily testing.
- 20-55% Hematocrit Range: Accommodates varying red blood cell concentrations. Maintains accuracy across different blood thickness levels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Accu-Chek Active strips compatible with Guide?
No, these strips only work with the Accu-Chek Active meter series. The Guide system requires its own specific strip model.
How do you use Accu-Chek Active strips?
Apply a blood sample to the green square while the strip is inside or outside the meter. The device displays the blood sugar level within 5 seconds.
What is the required blood sample size?
Testing requires a sample volume of 1 to 2 μL for accurate results. The under-dosing detection system flags samples smaller than this requirement.
