Mediator Chemistries in [Diabetic Test Strips](/sell-diabetic-supplies)

Introduction to Mediator Chemistries

Mediator chemistries drive diabetic test strips forward! They facilitate electron transfer, making blood glucose measurement possible. Three key players emerge: Ferrocene, Osmium, and Ruthenium.

Ferrocene Mediator Chemistry

Ferrocene takes the lead! It's highly efficient and stable, making it a manufacturer favorite.

Osmium Mediator Chemistry

Osmium steps up as a contender! It offers higher sensitivity and faster response times. However, toxicity and cost issues hold it back.

Ruthenium Mediator Chemistry

Ruthenium enters the scene! This newcomer promises improved stability and accuracy. Ongoing research yields promising results.
