1.2 Device Description
Figure 7: Macroduct Advanced Sweat Collector
The Macroduct Advanced Sweat collectors are used to collect the sweat
after iontophoresis. Six individually packaged collectors are included in
the SS-268 Macroduct Advanced Supply Kit and are intended for single
use.
Figure 8: Small Sealable Containers
The small sealable containers (200 µL micro-centrifuge tubes) are
included in the SS-268 Macroduct Advanced Supply Kit and are used to
store sweat samples for up to 72 hours when properly used. The small
sealable containers come packaged in a set of six (enough for six tests)
and are intended for single use.
Figure 9: Collector and Electrode Straps
The Macroduct Advanced straps are used to attach the electrodes and
collector to a patient (applied part). The straps are disposable or can be
re-used (see Section 5.4 for cleaning/disinfecting information) and come
packaged in a set of 18 (enough for six tests, one strap for each
electrode and one strap for the collector). The straps were designed for
ease of use and can accommodate a wide range of limb sizes. The non-
allergenic straps are a non-latex thermoplastic elastomer material.
