[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2349035, member: 196898"] One other thing is that different manufacturers use different chemistries in their strips, and these can differ due to differing sensitivities to blood composition. For example, most meters are affected by the hematocrit value of the blood sample, and some meters get confused over sugar alcohols like Malitol or Sorbitol. This may be an explanation if you are using readymeals or low fat products. [/QUOTE]
