AlphaTRAK Blood Glucose Monitoring System

Starter Kit

AlphaTRAK Blood Glucose Monitor is calibrated specifically for dog and cats. To get accurate blood glucose readings on your diabetic dog or cat, you must use a blood glucose monitor made specifically for dogs and cats.

  • Calibrated for Dogs and Cats
  • Easy to Use
  • Accurate Results

Humans, dogs, and cats all have different makeups of blood, specifically the difference in the ratios of glucose in plasma and red blood cells. While dogs have 87.5% of glucose in plasma and cats have 93%, humans only have 58%. This is significantly lower. If you use a human meter on a dog or cat, it assumes human glucose distribution in blood to calculate glucose levels, which may result in underestimation of blood glucose concentrations and inaccurate readings.

Accurate

Veterinarians depend on accurate blood glucose measurements to manage canine and feline diabetes. To ensure accuracy, a portable blood glucose meter must be calibrated and validated for species-specific blood.

Convenient

The AlphaTRAK Meter requires the world's smallest blood sample.

An accurate blood glucose can be obtained in four simple steps.

1. Insert the test strip.
2. Press the "m" button to power on the meter.
3. As the device powers on, it will display a code. The code displayed MUST match the dog or cat code listed on the test strip vial.
4. Change the code, if necessary, by pressing the "m" button to scroll down and "c" button to scroll up. Touch one sample area of the test strip to the blood sample (see right). Within 15 seconds, results will appear on the display screen.
