THE EDGE Hand-held Blood Lactate Analyser
Simple to use - accurate reading in 45 seconds
The EDGE Lactate Analyser is a hand-held device that measures lactate concentration in blood as a means for athletes and coaches to accurately assess the capability of the muscles for an athletic performance and help to improve your lactate threshold. Lactate measurement in blood is far more precise than the old and inefficient method of using percentages of maximum heart rate to set training zones.
The EDGE lactate Analyser only needs 3 μl of blood from a finger tip or ear lobe to be placed on the ergonomically designed EDGE Lactate Test Strips. The test strips have a siphoning action which can draw the blood in and specify the lactate concentration in blood. A numeric result is displayed via easy to read, large LCD screen in less than 45 seconds with both date and time. The result is comparable to laboratory reference standard.
The EDGE holds up to 300 results, each date and time stamped. The EDGE Handhold Lactate Analyser can be use by coaches, trainers, sports scientists and sports medicine personnel; in training of individuals and teams at all levels of competition, or as a flexible and inexpensive tool complementary to laboratory analysis.
