Application of test paper container-blood sugar test strip

 The test paper container is a very good moisture-proof packaging container, which is mainly used for in vitro diagnostic test strips that need moisture-proof preservation. Among many test strips, blood glucose test strips are the most widely used.

Blood glucose test strips are a kind of consumables used in conjunction with blood glucose detectors, coated with biological enzymes, and can detect the amount of glucose in peripheral blood through their color changes. The blood glucose test strip area consists of two thin sheets containing sensitive chemical components. Drop the blood on the test area (the center of the yellow part), put the test strip flat for one minute and then rinse the blood. Compared with the standard colorimetric plate, the chemical reaction that occurs will produce different degrees of color changes according to the glucose content in the blood. Glucose oxidase, peroxidase, on the test strip reacts with glucose in the blood. A color indication of the reaction along with the non-reactive components will be presented in the test area.

The enzyme reagents in blood glucose test strips are particularly sensitive to water molecules. Therefore, the test strips must be stored in a dry and stable environment to avoid deterioration. There is a small medicine compartment on the lid of the test strip barrel, which contains molecular sieve and silica gel desiccant, which can absorb the moisture inside the package, maintain the stability of the internal environment, and ensure that the test strips are stored well.

Although the test paper container has good moisture resistance, the frequency of blood sugar testing is relatively high, so the package will be opened frequently, and the lid should be closed immediately after removing the test paper to prevent the intrusion of external water vapor.

Buy test strip vial

 The test paper vial is mainly used for the packaging of various test papers such as test strips, and most of the bottles have the test results of the corresponding color. When many pharmaceutical companies buy test paper barrels, it is really difficult to choose between pharmaceutical packaging manufacturers with a wide range of products and products with different prices.

Inspect the manufacturer's qualification

The purchase of test paper barrels must take into account the manufacturer’s qualifications, equipment, production environment and other factors, which are related to the stability of product performance and whether the later services are in place. The frequency of blood glucose test strip testing is relatively high, so the demand for test strip buckets is also a relatively long-term application. The process of buying test paper barrels is also a process of choosing a long-term partner. If you establish a long-term partnership with the manufacturer, you can have a certain amount of room for negotiation on the price, which is more conducive to the control of later costs.

Understand product specifications and features

As a kind of professional medicine packaging, the test paper barrel has moisture resistance and airtightness as the most basic requirements. The sealability is generally considered from the packaging material. The cork of the test paper barrel is made of flexible polyethylene, and the bottle body is made of polypropylene with good hardness. This dual material system and innovative plastic design can make the seal and the container perfectly sealed. , Strictly control the water vapor transmission effect.

To achieve the moisture-proof effect of the test paper bucket, a desiccant needs to be placed in the bottle. The general test paper bucket desiccant is set in the bottle stopper, which is more convenient for storage and avoids the risk of accidental ingestion by children. The choice of desiccant is mainly silica gel and molecular sieve, and the national standard requires the moisture content of the finished product to be ≤2.8%.

The anti-theft ring of the test paper barrel is mainly used to determine whether the drug has been used or opened before the drug is first used. The cork spring can reduce the vibration generated during the transportation of the medicine and protect the test strip from damage. The mainstream blood glucose test strip barrel specifications are 48mm and 63mm, which can be selected according to product requirements.

Diabetes is a chronic disease that cannot be cured but can control the development of the disease. Blood glucose monitoring is one of the methods for diabetic patients to understand their own blood sugar changes and better control the disease. The choice of test strips is related to the stability and validity of the test strips. Pharmaceutical companies must be cautious when purchasing.

glucose test strip tube with desiccant

Today, more and more people suffer from diabetes, and they need test glucose everyday, if they have a dry tube to store the glucose test strip, maybe the strips life is longer than other packaging, of course it is also convenient for persons to carry.

test strip usage

Now Our factory design a new products,the products is glucose test strip tube with desiccant. I will introduce the glucose test strip tube with desiccant. Xinfuda glucose test strip tube has snap top with desiccant, the desiccant can extend the shelf life of test strip effectively.

glucose test strip tube

The following is the advantages:

the tube can store many stripes, and the desiccant can control the environment of the tube to keep the tube dry.

adopting moisture proof cap avoids the deterioration of the enzyme preparation because of humidity.

desicant and cap fused together simplifies the manufacturer filling process.

caps adopt anti-theft ring design.

GMP workshop which controls the content of the microorganism strictly.

DMF and FDA approved

tube with snap top 

The following is our sevices:

We can design the custom solutions according to the requirement of clients,for example Logo,multiple color printing,Anti counterfeiting identification and so on.

Can supply the whole solution from the design to later use.

The bottle body can be paste labels and printed in advance.

Multiple kinds desiccant can be chosen.

The size can be customized.

Bottle for test strips

Good for 6 months after you first open the bottle or until the expiration date, whichever comes first. Good to the expiration date on the bottle. The strips have an 18 month life span and it is estimated that once they arrive at the retailer they have14 to 16 months left.

usually which finger is right to test blood glucose?

Prick your finger with the lancing device at the sides of the finger as there are less nerve ending here than at the tips or the 'pads'. Recommended finger: the World Health Organisation recommends the middle or ring fingers are used for blood glucose tests.

These empty containers essentially replace the 35 mm film containers that were once popular (and can still be found in bulk). But the glucose test strip containers are more weather proof, close more securely and more readily available in some ways than the old 35mm film containers.

I found out about this tip from a friend of whose someone developed Type I diabetes as an adult.Though diabetes ran in her family, an active lifestyle and a sensible diet throughout most of her life apparently kept disease at bay well in adulthood.

In any case, she is also an active apparently these glucose test strip containers work really well for small geocaches. 

For campers or backpackers, these containers can hold matches, a small sewing kit, fish hooks, condiments such as salt and pepper…and the myriad other items the old 35mm containers were used for when spending time outside. But, these glucose test strip containers are better for the reasons noted above.
