Ua ntej kuaj, nws raug nquahu kom npaj cov tawv nqaij los ntawm kev ntxuav koj cov ntiv tes nrog dej sov thiab xab npum, los yog tshuaj tua kab mob nrog cawv; ob txoj kev yog txais tau. Lub koom haum American Diabetes tau pom zoo kom ntxuav koj txhais tes nrog xab npum thiab dej ua ntej npaj daim tawv nqaij ua ntej ntiv tes- kuaj ntshav qabzib. Txawm li cas los xij, tsis hais txog txoj kev twg, nws tseem ceeb heev uas yuav tsum nco ntsoov tias tus ntiv tes yuav tsum qhuav ua ntej kos ntshav. Ntawd yog, tom qab ntxuav nrog dej sov thiab xab npum, cia koj cov ntiv tes kom huab cua qhuav tag; Tom qab tshuaj tua kab mob nrog cawv, tos kom cov cawv kom huv si ua ntej pricking koj tus ntiv tes nrog cov cuab yeej lancing kom paub meej qhov ntsuas.
Nws yog ib qho tseem ceeb uas yuav tsum tau hais tias iodine - muaj cov tshuaj tua kab mob (xws li povidone-iodine lossis iodine tincture) yuav tsum tsis txhob siv los tua cov tawv nqaij. Hauv kev soj ntsuam cov ntshav qabzib siv lub hauv paus ntsiab lus ntawm cov piam thaj oxidase (xws li electrode-raws li thiab photochemical-raws li ntshav qabzib ntsuas), iodine hauv iodine tincture lossis povidone-iodine tuaj yeem cuam tshuam nrog cov enzymes hauv cov ntshav kuaj ntshav, ua rau muaj kev ua yuam kev. Qhov no yog vim hais tias: nyob rau hauv electrode -raws li cov ntshav qabzib ntsuas, thaum tag nrho cov ntshav yog dripped mus rau cov tshuaj tiv thaiv cheeb tsam ntawm lub xeem strip, cov piam thaj nyob rau hauv cov qauv reacts nrog cov tshuaj substrate (enzyme), tsim hluav taws xob tam sim no. Cov ntshav qabzib yog xam los ntawm kev txheeb xyuas qhov kev siv tam sim no. Iodine kuj tuaj yeem cuam tshuam nrog cov enzyme, yog li cuam tshuam nrog kev nyeem ntawv tam sim no thiab ua rau cov ntshav nyeem tsis raug. Cov ntshav qabzib ntsuas ntsuas raws li cov txheej txheem photochemical kuaj xyuas cov ntshav qabzib los ntawm kev ntsuas cov xim hloov ntawm cov khoom kuaj kab mob thaum cov txheej txheem tshuaj tiv thaiv. Iodine tuaj yeem cuam tshuam cov xim hloov los ntawm cov tshuaj tiv thaiv uas tau hais tseg thiab nws cov xim, yog li cuam tshuam rau qhov tseeb ntawm cov ntshav nyeem cov piam thaj.
