Accutrend Testing System

The Accutrend system from Roche is a portable, multi-parameter analyzer built for point-of-care testing outside the lab. Rather than running separate devices for different markers, a single handheld meter measures glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, and lactate from a small fingerstick sample — making it a practical choice for clinics, pharmacies, wellness screenings, and health professionals who need reliable results on the spot.

At the center of this collection is the Accutrend Plus Meter Kit (05346754160), a compact unit measuring just 154mm x 81mm x 30mm that delivers results in roughly 12 seconds. Its speed and small footprint suit mobile screening events and busy practice settings where quick turnaround matters. Each parameter is read using its own dedicated test strip, so the meter adapts to whatever you need to measure that day.

For cholesterol testing, the Accutrend Plus Reagent Test Strips (5213312160) come in a vial of 25, packaged with a code strip to calibrate the meter to the lot. A common question from new users is how the meter knows which lot it's reading — that code strip is the answer, and running it before a new vial keeps your readings accurate.
