Description
IndicationsÂ
The One Touch Ultra Control Solution is a product designed for use with the One Touch Ultra blood glucose monitoring system. It is used to ensure the accuracy and reliability of blood glucose test results. The control solution is a liquid that contains a known amount of glucose, and it is used to test the performance of the glucose meter and test strips.Â
One Touch Ultra Control Solution is available in a 2×2.5ml format, meaning there are two vials of 2.5ml each. The control solution is typically used to perform a control test, where a drop of the control solution is applied to a test strip instead of a blood sample. The glucose meter then reads the control solution, and the result should fall within a specified range printed on the control solution vial.Â
