Precision
Three lots of the GL44 blood glucose test strips have been tested to assess the precision of the GL44
blood glucose measuring system. This includes a repeat assessment using venous blood and a labora-
tory precision assessment using the control material. The blood glucose content of the venous blood
samples ranges from 42.7 to 418.0 mg/dL and control material from three concentrations is used.

System accuracy
The GL44 blood glucose monitor in comparison with the YSI.
Three lots of GL44 blood glucose test strips have been tested to assess the system accuracy of the
GL44 blood glucose measuring system and to compare it with the reference method in which capil-
lary whole blood concentrations of 34.4 to 442.8 mg/dL have been used.
