CHECK at 800.513.1965 (10am - 4pm PST) or place of purchase.
Intended Use
The keto-mojo β-ketone & blood glucose monitoring system is
intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in fresh capillary
whole blood from the finger, and for the quantitative measurement of
β-ketone (beta-hydroxybutyrate) in fresh capillary whole blood from
the finger. The system is intended for in vitro diagnostic use and
for single-patient use as an aid to monitoring the effectiveness of a
diabetes control program. The system should not be used for the
diagnosis of or screening for diabetes, nor for use on neonates.
The test for haematocrit (HCT) as part of the system, is intended
for use in the in vitro quantification of packed red blood cell volume
fraction in capillary whole blood as an aid in monitoring the status of
total volume of red blood cells. The test reading of haematocrit (HCT)
is used only to determine whether the blood test sample is within the
acceptable range of β-ketone & blood glucose monitoring system
monitoring system.It should not be used for the diagnosis of anaemia
or erythrocytosis.

TestPrinciple
ContentsofSystem
Your system measures the amount of sugar (glucose) or β-ketone in whole
blood. The glucose or β-ketone testing is based on the measurement of
electrical current generated by the reaction of glucose or β-ketone with the
reagent of the strip. The meter measures the current, calculates the blood
glucose or β-ketone level, and displays the result. The strength of the current
produced by the reaction depends on the amount of glucose or β-ketone in
the blood sample.
Your new keto-mojo β-ketone & blood glucose monitoring system kit
includes:
1. Meter
2. Owner’s Manual
