Accu-Chek Aviva 50 Strips

The Accu Chek Aviva test strips are very precise in their functionality because it takes just a minuscule drop of blood to fill the strip. These active strips provide a highly accurate reading of the blood glucose levels and work best with the Accu Chek Glucometer. These test strips can be used at home as well as for clinical purposes at the hospital because they fulfil the ISO 15197:2013 standards of accuracy. The quick absorption system of the Accu Chek active strips allows the tiny drop of blood to spread easily on it and this helps provide a more accurate reading of blood glucose levels. These test strips can absorb a blood volume of 1-2 μl.
