  • Open the test cassette and place it on a flat surface.

Collect Your Blood Sample

  • Massage your fingertip (middle or ring finger) to increase blood flow.

  • Remove the protective cap from the lancet and position it on the side of your fingertip (avoid the center for comfort).

  • Press firmly until you hear a click. After the puncture, wipe away the first drop of blood with a tissue or gauze

Transfer the Blood Sample

  • Gently squeeze your fingertip to form a small blood drop.

  • Use the fine-tip dropper to collect blood to fill the thin part of the tube. Ensure to hold the pressure on the fine-tip dropper so that the blood drop remains within the thin part of the tube.

  • Hold the dropper vertically over the test cassette and release 1 drop of blood into the sample well (marked "S").

Add the Buffer Solution & Start Timer

  • Add 2 drops of the buffer liquid into the sample well.

  • Start a timer and wait 10 minutes for the test to develop.

  • Do not read results after 20 minutes, as they may be inaccurate.
