Steps for Running a Uric Acid Control Check
CAUTIONS:
Always check the Uric Acid code key number to make sure it matches the number labeled
on the test strip vial when you run a Uric Acid control test. Otherwise you may get incorrect
results.
Always write down the opening date of your Uric Acid control solution vial and test strip vial.
Both of them are good for only 2 months after first opening or until the expiration date,
whichever comes first.
The result will be stored in memory and appear just like the blood uric acid result.

squeeze the bottle to form a small drop, discard the first drop of the

on the test strip.The control solution will be drawn into the reaction zone
automatically.

your result on the screen.

acceptable range shown on the test strip vial.
