An automated system for HbA1c testing:
HemoCue® HbA1c 501 System is a fully automated point-of-care system for testing HbA1c. Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is a glycated form of Hb that is tested primarily to identify the average amount of glucose (sugar) present in patients’ blood over the past three months. Blood sugar testing is an important part of the diabetes care and necessary for millions of diabetics.

Room-temperature storage gives you less to think about:
The test cartridges don’t need to be refrigerated. The test cartridge is stable until the expiration date printed on the package when stored at 2 - 32°C. Do not freeze. You don’t have to worry about the number of test cartridges you will be using during the day or bringing them out of the fridge to be at room temperature. This gives you less to think about in order to perform the tests in the right way and get the correct results.
