The ACON QuikCheck Cholesterol Test Strips 25 Pack contains genuine single-use Total Cholesterol test strips designed for the compatible QuikCheck Cholesterol Monitoring System.
When used with the correct QuikCheck meter and matching code chip, the system quantitatively measures Total Cholesterol (CHOL) from approximately 4 µL of fresh fingertip capillary whole blood, with results available in approximately 15–70 seconds.
Compatibility is critical: these strips are system-specific and should not be used with glucometers, Accurex lipid profile meters, CardioChek systems or other cholesterol-testing devices.

These strips are designed to quantitatively measure:
Total Cholesterol (CHOL)
They do not separately provide:
This makes QuikCheck a Total Cholesterol monitoring system, not a complete lipid-profile analyser.
If you require multiple lipid parameters, compare QuikCheck with the Accurex lipid-profile platform:

Always verify the meter model before ordering replacement test strips.
Diagnostic test strips are designed around a specific meter, reagent system, calibration method and analytical process.
QuikCheck strips should therefore not be substituted for strips intended for:
Physical similarity between two strips does not establish compatibility.

The QuikCheck cholesterol platform requires only approximately:
4 microlitres (4 µL)
of fresh fingertip capillary whole blood.
The biosensor strip is designed for direct sample application, helping simplify point-of-care Total Cholesterol testing.
When used correctly with the compatible QuikCheck meter, results are typically available in approximately:
15–70 seconds.
The actual measurement time may vary within the manufacturer's specified range.
The compatible system has a manufacturer-specified Total Cholesterol range of approximately:
100–450 mg/dL
or:
2.6–11.7 mmol/L
Results outside the analytical range should not be interpreted as an exact cholesterol concentration.
The QuikCheck cholesterol system uses a biosensor measurement principle.
The testing process involves:
This is why the correct strip must always be paired with the correct meter.
The QuikCheck cholesterol system uses a code chip for strip calibration.
When beginning a new strip pack:
Keep the strip pack and corresponding code chip together.
The manufacturer configuration for the 25-strip canister pack includes:
Packaging artwork and presentation may vary between manufacturing batches. Check the actual supplied pack for final contents.
The manufacturer specifies strip storage at approximately:
2°C–30°C
and approximately:
20–90% relative humidity.
Keep the strips:
Do not routinely transfer strips into another container.
ACON's Ultra cholesterol platform documentation specifies an unopened test-strip shelf life of approximately:
2 years.
However, the printed expiry date on the actual strip pack supplied to you is the controlling expiry date.
Never assume that a current pack has the same expiry date as an old product photograph or previous order.
For a canister pack, manufacturer documentation specifies approximately:
3 months after first opening.
Use whichever limit occurs first:
For example, if the canister is opened on 1 October and remains within its printed expiry, the approximate opened-canister limit would be 1 January.
For easier strip management, write:
Opened: DD-MM-YYYY
Use before / discard after: DD-MM-YYYY
This is particularly useful in clinics, pharmacies and screening environments where several users may share the same strip container.
For canister-packed QuikCheck strips:
Do not leave the container open while preparing the finger prick or patient.
Use a fresh strip for every test.
Do not use strips that are:
Do not wash, clean or reuse a test strip.
Always follow the current instructions supplied with the meter and strips.
When used according to the manufacturer's instructions, the QuikCheck platform may support appropriate cholesterol monitoring workflows including:

The current Microsidd monitor kit includes the compatible meter together with starter accessories and complimentary test strips, subject to the supplied batch configuration.
QuikCheck is designed for Total Cholesterol only.
If your workflow requires Total Cholesterol together with HDL, Triglycerides and calculated LDL, consider an appropriate multi-parameter lipid platform such as the Accurex system.

QuikCheck Cholesterol Test Strips are system-specific in-vitro diagnostic consumables intended for quantitative Total Cholesterol testing.
Before testing, verify:
Total Cholesterol is only one component of cardiovascular risk assessment. These strips do not provide the same information as a complete laboratory lipid profile.
Unexpected, abnormal or clinically significant results should be interpreted by an appropriate healthcare professional and confirmed with suitable laboratory testing where indicated.
Diagnostic test strips are non-returnable and non-exchangeable.
Please verify the meter model, strip compatibility, test parameter, pack size and expiry requirement before placing your order.
Genuine cases involving an incorrect product received will be handled separately according to Microsidd.com's applicable policies and applicable law.
An original, continuous, unedited and uncut unboxing video is required when making a claim regarding an incorrect product received.
