Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can Mission® Plus be marketed as a system that independently measures both Hb and Hct?

Mission® Plus directly measures hemoglobin (Hb) and provides a calculated hematocrit (Hct) value. Its Hb measurement range is 5.6–23.5 g/dL, while the calculated Hct range is 35–51%. Bulk buyers preparing technical catalogs and product labels should distinguish measured Hb from calculated Hct. This ensures the system is accurately represented without presenting both parameters as independent direct measurements.

2. How can bulk buyers compare the performance of Mission® Plus using capillary and venous blood?

The system uses reflectance photometry with a methemoglobin detection principle and requires 10 μL of capillary or venous whole blood. Its Hb within-run and total precision are both specified at CV ≤3%. The published comparison data show R² = 0.988 for both specimen types. These figures allow bulk buyers to compare the system's measurement performance across supported blood sample types when evaluating competing Hb meters.

3. How does the three-month opened-canister shelf life affect large-volume test device purchasing?

Mission® Plus test devices have a shelf life of two years in unopened canisters but must be used within three months after opening. For bulk buyers supplying multiple locations, this distinction is important when selecting consumable pack quantities and replenishment schedules. Orders can be divided according to expected consumption, helping reduce unused stock after opening while maintaining a consistent supply of compatible test devices.

4. Which consumables must be included when preparing recurring supply orders for Mission® Plus?

Mission® Plus uses a 10 μL blood sample collected with a capillary transfer tube. Each standard kit includes 10 test devices, 10 plastic capillary transfer tubes, 10 lancets, a lancing device, and a code chip. Bulk buyers should account for the compatible test devices, sample transfer tubes, and blood collection supplies when preparing replenishment orders, rather than calculating ongoing requirements from test device quantities alone.

5. What record management capabilities does Mission® Plus offer for large equipment deployments?

The meter stores up to 1,000 test results, including date, time, and ID number, and provides a Mini USB interface for transferring records to a computer. These functions support organized result identification and electronic record handling across multiple purchased units. Bulk buyers can include the memory capacity, ID-based records, and Mini USB connectivity in equipment specifications for projects requiring structured test data management.

6. Why should purchase orders distinguish Mission® Plus from other Mission® hemoglobin meter models?

Mission® Plus has its own measurement ranges, physical dimensions, and accessory configuration. It measures Hb from 5.6–23.5 g/dL, provides calculated Hct from 35–51%, and uses a 137 × 79 × 26 mm meter with four AAA batteries. Its package also includes plastic capillary transfer tubes and control devices. Specifying the exact Mission® Plus model and corresponding kit contents in bulk purchase orders helps prevent confusion with other Mission® Hb systems that have different specifications and accessories.
