Lactate Scout Sport Solo
The lactometer Lactate Scout 4 is used to determine the lactate level in the blood under any conditions. It is easy to operate, after taking a blood sample, the device measures the lactate value within 15 seconds of inserting the blood stripe.
The package includes:
- diagnostic device on Lactate Scout 4
- 2 AAA batteries
- user manual and safety instructions
WARNING! The package does not contain control stripes or a blood sampling needle (a classic injection needle can be used)

- insert the batteries into the device on the back
- you can choose the basic settings with the scroll wheel on the right side of the device (data entry, time, measuring stripe code, measurement method, etc.)
- choose a test stripe from the box and insert it into the device - the device will turn on automatically
- clean and disinfect the earlobe or fingertip for sample collection
- a short injection with a disposable needle or lancet pen is enough to take blood
- attach the test stripe, inserted into the device with the free end so that it absorbs drops of blood, one sample has a volume of max. 0.5 µl of blood
- as soon as the blood is absorbed into the test stripe, the measurement will start automatically, and the result will be displayed within 15 seconds
- the device stores the last 250 measurements, including data, time, measurement method and serial number of the measurement
