Beurer GL 50 evo (mgdl) - Manual (Page 35)

Beurer GL50 evo mg/dL 35
Only a small amount of blood is required (0.6 microlitres) and measurement takes approx. five sec-
onds. The test strip detects blood glucose values from 20 to 630 mg/dL.
Chemical components of the test strip sensor
• FAD glucose dehydrogenase 6%
• Potassium ferricyanide 56%
• Non-reactive components 38%
Control solution functionality
The control solution contains a fixed amount of glucose that reacts with the test strip. A test with
control solution is similar to a blood test. However, control solution is used instead of blood. The
measured result using control solution must be within the result range. This range is printed on each
test strip box.
Chemical composition of the control solution
The control solution is a red solution with the following D-glucose level (in percentage shares):
Ingredients
Control solution LEVEL 3 Control solution LEVEL 4
D-glucose 0.14% 0.37%
Non-reactive components 99.86% 99.63%
Standards
The Beurer GL50 evo blood glucose monitor complies with the European standards: IVD (98/79/EC)
and MDD (93/42/EC).

Precision
Three lots of the GL50 evo blood glucose test strips have been tested to assess the precision of the
GL50 evo blood glucose measuring system. This includes a repeat assessment using venous blood
and a laboratory precision assessment using the control material. The blood glucose content of the
venous blood samples ranges from 42.7 to 418.0 mg/dL and control material from three concent-
rations is used.
