-Incorrect usage or expired strips may lead to misleading glucose readings, which could result in inappropriate management of diabetes.
Main Materials and Their Benefits:
-Glucose Oxidase (Aspergillus niger) ≥ 0.08 IU: This enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of glucose, enabling accurate measurement of blood glucose levels.
-Ferricyanide ≥ 22 µg: This reagent acts as an electron acceptor in the glucose oxidation reaction, enhancing the accuracy of the test results.
-Other ingredients (buffers, etc.): These components maintain the optimal pH for the enzymatic reaction, ensuring reliable performance of the test strip.
-Drying agent in the vial: This agent protects the test strips from moisture, preserving their stability and effectiveness over time.
