Blood collection Press the automatic lancing device firmly against the fingertip and allow a drop of blood to appear. Use the transfer pipette to collect the blood. Add two drops of blood to the test cassette at the marked spot.
Test execution Add two drops of buffer solution to the same spot. Wait 10-15 minutes and read the result.
