Conrm/Micro Test Strips

These test strips need only 0.3 µL (microliter) of blood. Apply blood to the

sample application tip. The strip draws in the blood by capillary action. The

blood glucose reacts with the enzyme on the test strip. This produces a

current proportional to the blood glucose level. The meter detects the current

and converts it into a blood glucose reading.
