Test principle Determination of glucose in fresh capillary
blood by reflectance photometry. When using
different specimen material please refer to
the package insert that came with the
Accu-Chek Compact test strips.
Blood glucose concentrations may be mea-
sured in whole blood or in plasma. Although
you always draw up whole blood with the test
strip, your meter displays blood glucose
results that relate either to whole blood or to
plasma. To see whether your blood glucose
meter displays results relating to whole blood
or to plasma, please read the package insert
that came with your test strips. There you will
also find information on how the system
works, on the test principle and on reference
methods.
