Fundamental evaluation of ADAMS Glucose GA-1172 glucose analyzer

Abstract

We evaluated the performance of the ADAMS Glucose GA-1172 glucose analyzer, which measures glucose on the basis of the amperometric method. Measurement values of the Certified Reference Standard Material JCCRM521 were almost the same as the values certified by JCCRM521. The intraday and interday coefficients of variation were 0.67–2.15% and 0.31–1.02%, respectively. Good linearity was observed for glucose concentrations until 969.3 mg/dL in the dilution linearity test. The correlation between values measured by GA-1172 and LABOSPECT006 was satisfactory. Our results demonstrated that GA-1172 is useful for routine examinations.
