McKesson Quintet AC Test Strips 50 Count
McKesson Quintet AC Blood Glucose Test Strips — 50 Count
Glove-Grip Strips for the Quintet AC Meter — Easy to Handle, Quick to Read
McKesson Quintet AC Blood Glucose Test Strips deliver fast, dependable readings on the QUINTET AC meter, with a design built for easy everyday handling. The unique "glove grip" paddle makes each strip simple to pick up and position — even while wearing gloves — which is why they suit professional and multi-user stations, point-of-care settings, and at-home routines alike.
Each strip needs only a small 1 µL sample and returns a result in about five seconds, so testing stays quick and low-fuss. Latex-free materials and a practical 50-strip box make them an easy choice to keep a steady supply on hand for regular monitoring.
Pack Options
- Box of 50 — the standard supply
- Case of 20 boxes (1,000 strips) — the economical choice for higher-volume settings

Equipment Specialist Insight: Test strips are meter-specific, so the most important thing is matching them to the system you run — these are made for the QUINTET AC meter and won't interchange with other brands. For settings that test often, the case quantity keeps a buffer on hand, and running a control check with the matching QUINTET AC control solution when you open a new box confirms the meter and strips are reading correctly. Store strips in their original container with the cap closed, away from moisture, and check the expiration before use.
