Eisco Labs - Scientific Glucose Test Strips - Educational Glucose Test Strips - Essential Tools for Food Science & Osmosis/Diffusion Experimentation, 100 Strips

Packed in a UV Resistant Bag of 100 Plastic Test Strips. Color chart has blocks at 0, 100, 300, 1000 and 3000 mg/dL. This strip only tests for glucose dissolved in liquids.Used to measure glucose levels in osmosis/diffusion experiments or food science studies. This glucose test paper detects 0-3000 mg/dL glucose. These strips are specific to glucose. The strips are sensitive enough to detect the glucose from the breakdown of starch. You will not get a reaction with soft drinks or regular sugar since these are mainly fructose or sucrose.Instructions:Remove one glucose test strip from the amber bag. Completely immerse the test pad into the specimen for 1-2 seconds. Run the test strip along the edge of the container to remove excess liquid. Compare to the color chart after 3 minutesReseal the bag as soon as possible. Do not touch the test pad with your fingers, as the oils on your fingers may produce an interference with your test results.NOTE: In solutions containing oxidizers, a false positive may be observed.NOTE: The glucose test strips use an enzyme that is specific for glucose. In order for the enzyme to work properly, the glucose needs to undergo mutarotation. Ensure the glucose has been dissolved in the water solution for at least 3 hours, to ensure that the mutarotation process has occurred.

• ACCURATE GLUCOSE MEASUREMENT || Glucose meter strips detect glucose levels from 0 to 3000 mg/dL or 0-3% ensuring precise results vital for educational experiments in various disciplines.
• VERSATILE APPLICATION || Test Strips are ideal for measuring glucose levels in osmosis/diffusion experiments & food science studies, offering insights into glucose behavior in various solutions.
• PRECISE MEASUREMENT || The color chart features blocks at 0, 100, 300, 1000, and 3000 mg/dL, ensuring accurate and easy-to-read results for educational and scientific purposes.
• ENZYME SPECIFICITY || Utilizes an enzyme specific for glucose detection. Note: Mutarotation of glucose in water samples may require up to 3 hours for optimal enzyme function.
• EDUCATIONAL PURPOSE || The glucose test kit is intended for scientific & educational purposes only.
