The test strip vial is a packaging container specially used to store the test paper barrel. It is generally made of polypropylene material through an injection molding process. A desiccant can be placed in the bottle cap to ensure that the test strip is kept in a good state. When purchasing test strip vials, pharmaceutical companies should investigate whether the production workshop of their products is sterile, whether the production equipment is advanced, whether the finished product testing results meet the standards, and whether the supplier's qualifications are complete and other factors to ensure that the product quality is effectively guaranteed.

Test strips are easily affected by temperature, humidity, and chemical substances, so they should be stored in a dry, cool place and avoid sunlight. You can put the test paper in the drawer, keep it cool and dry, and achieve the purpose of avoiding light and moisture. After the test strip vial is opened, try to use it up within 3 months. If it takes too long, the test paper is prone to moisture or oxidation reaction, which will affect the blood glucose test results.

As one of the top ten chronic diseases in the world, diabetes is a serious threat to human health and quality of life. Daily monitoring of blood glucose through blood glucose test strips helps diabetic patients to keep abreast of changes in their condition at any time and to respond to special situations. Pharmaceutical companies should choose qualified and guaranteed manufacturers when choosing test strips to lay a solid foundation for the accuracy of blood glucose monitoring.
