Overview
The LeadCare Ultra Blood Lead Testing System is an in vitro diagnostic device designed to measure lead concentrations in whole blood. It employs electrochemical detection using anodic stripping voltammetry with a sensor that quantifies lead after the sample is mixed with a dilute hydrochloric acid reagent to lyse red blood cells.
The system is a benchtop, plug‑and‑play solution intended for external use in clinical toxicology laboratories. It is supplied as a complete system with reagents and test kits for capillary whole‑blood samples, provides results in approximately three minutes, and is classified as a Class II device cleared by the FDA under 510(k) decision K123563 (product code DOF).
