According to the company, the Glucocard system requires no coding, displays results in seven seconds, and requires a tiny 0.3 microliter sample size.
Glucocard 01 is AST approved and has a 360-count test memory with time and date stamp. It is said to feature a large, easy-to-read display for better viewing of test results.
Jonathan Chapman, president of Arkray USA, said: “The Glucocard 01 appearance is similar to leading cell phone deigns and unlike other glucose monitors on the market. We look forward to building off the Glucocard 01 technology and launching further systems later this year that will utilize the identical test strip.”
