The Chemcard™ Cholesterol test offers unsurpassed simplicity for instant determination of total cholesterol concentration in the diagnostically critical range of 150 to 300 mg/d: (3.9 to 7.8 mmol/l). The Chemcard™ Cholesterol test uses a single drop of whole blood from a fingerstick to provide a semi-quantitative estimate of total cholesterol concentration without the use of an instrument, centrifuge or sample measurement. Results are interpreted after 3 minutes by matching color with one of the six color blocks calibrated in 25 mg/dL increments. The Chemcard™ Cholesterol test is the simplest, most cost effective cholesterol screening device available.
Due to FDA restrictions, the Chemcard™ Cholesterol test is available for use in the USA by medical professionals only.
The Chemcard™ Cholesterol test is CE marked for self-testing in the European Union under Annex IV, Article 3 of EC Directive 98/79/EC on IN VITRO Diagnostic Medical Devices.
