Microcuvette for Glucose
Product Code : LSK-CL-11286
Microcuvette for Glucose (SKU LSK-CL-11286) is a single-use cuvette that both collects a small blood sample and serves as the measuring cell: it draws 5 to 10 µL of capillary whole blood straight from the skin by capillary action and then goes into a glucose photometer for direct reading. It suits point-of-care testing practicals in medical laboratory and nursing training. Science Lab Supplies sends it out from Ambala, India in boxes of 100 for institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The collection, sample and packing details of this glucose microcuvette each have a row in the table. In short, it is a single-use collection and measuring cuvette that fills by capillarity with 5 to 10 µL of whole blood, accepts capillary, venous or arterial samples, and comes 100 to a screw-capped plastic vial.

Applications and Experiments for the Glucose Microcuvette
The microcuvette lets trainees take a capillary blood sample and read glucose on a photometer in one step, which makes it practical for point-of-care testing exercises. It suits DMLT and B.Sc. MLT clinical biochemistry practicals and nursing skills sessions on capillary blood sampling, carried out under supervision.
- Capillary sampling practice: puncturing the fingertip with a Lancet 2.4 mm Disposable and filling the cuvette from the blood drop.
- Handling capillary, venous or arterial whole blood within one clinical biochemistry practical.
- Sharps discipline: discarding used lancets in a Sharp Container Leak Proof Plastic.
- Aftercare at the puncture site with a non-sterile Gauze Compress.
Each cuvette takes one sample only. Read the English instruction manual before the first session and treat all blood as potentially infectious.
Standard Scope of Supply
One box holds 100 single-use microcuvettes packed in a plastic vial with a screw cap, together with an instruction manual in English. The cuvettes are read in a glucose photometer, and the matching photometer can be confirmed and added to the quotation on request.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
You can ask for a quotation for one box of 100 or for enough boxes to cover a full term of practicals; each quotation gives the packing, delivery time and price for the boxes ordered. Lancets, gauze and sharps containers can be listed on the same quotation for one delivery.
Registered as an exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia, Tanzania and Uganda. Box quantities can be sent through the contact page or added to the enquiry cart, and tender buyers will find the process on the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much blood does one microcuvette take?
It collects 5 to 10 µL of capillary whole blood directly from the skin surface by capillarity. Venous and arterial whole blood can also be used, and each microcuvette is meant for a single sample.
How many microcuvettes are in a box?
Each box contains 100 microcuvettes in a plastic vial with a screw cap, and an instruction manual in English is supplied with it. Larger quantities are quoted as multiple boxes.
Which instrument reads the microcuvette?
The cuvette is inserted into a glucose photometer for direct reading. Tell us through the contact page which photometer your laboratory uses, and the match will be confirmed on the quotation before you order.
Who supplies the Microcuvette for Glucose?
Science Lab Supplies sources these microcuvettes rather than manufacturing them, and from Ambala, India it quotes boxes for institutes, tender contractors and distributors, along with any related blood-collection consumables they need.
