2. Look at
the Test
Spot
where you
applied
the blood
sample. It
should
still have
a wet,
shiny
drop which completely fills
the circle. If the blood
sample has a dull, dry
appearance, you may have
smeared the sample or not
applied enough blood.
3. Look
at the
back of
the Strip;
you
should
see a full,
dark
circle.
The white
portion on the back of the
Test Strip may also appear
as a small square due to
different manufacturing
processes. This difference
will not affect your blood
glucose results.
If there are
any white
patches or
streaks,
you may
have
smeared
the blood
sample or
not applied
enough
blood.
In either case, the drop of
blood was too small and
may give you an inaccu-
rately low result. Repeat
the test with a new Test
Strip.
