Mechanism of Action

The glucometer works using an electrochemical process:

• A small drop of blood is placed on a test strip
• The strip contains enzymes that react with glucose in the blood
• This reaction produces an electrical signal
• The device converts the signal into a numerical glucose reading

The result is displayed on the screen within seconds.
