ARKRAY USA Nationally Launches GLUCOCARD X-METER Blood Glucose Monitoring System
- New blood glucose system designed specifically for individuals with diabetes who prefer a no-code meter. Where High End Technology Meets Simplicity.-
Minneapolis, MN, June 13, 2008 - ARKRAY USA, Inc. nationally launched GLUCOCARD X-METER Blood Glucose Monitoring System at the
ADA (American Diabetes Association) annual meeting June 7, 2008. GLUCOCARD XMETER is well-received internationally and has been cleared by the FDA for sale in the U.S.
GLUCOCARD X-METER
This intuitive system requires no coding, displays results in 5 seconds, requires a tiny 0.3 µ sample size, and has a 360-count test memory with time and date stamp. The
choice of palm, forearm, upper arm or fingertip testing, combined with the ability to
reapply blood within 10 seconds if the first drop is too small (double dosing), makes
testing simple and accommodating. It also features a large, easy-to-read display for
better viewing of test results. The GLUCOCARD X- METER is distinguished by its
leading edge design and technology. "The diabetes community has never seen such
a sleek meter with all the necessary features. We have received tremendous
feedback on how discreet the GLUCOCARD X-METER is. It is not your ordinary
meter," said Jonathan Chapman, President for ARKRAY USA, Inc.
