Alere Triage®Test Devices. A test device
holds the sample and also contains the
reagents and other materials needed for
the test.
Introduction
Description
What is the Alere Triage®MeterPro?
The Alere Triage®MeterPro is a portable fluorescence instrument used to measure the
results of tests manufactured by Alere San Diego, Inc. The Alere Triage®MeterPro can be
used in a laboratory or in a point-of-care setting.
The Alere Triage®MeterPro uses a laser as a light source. Light from the laser hits a test
device that has been inserted in the meter. This causes the fluorescent dye in the test device
to give off energy. The more energy the fluorescent dye gives off, the stronger the signal.
Overview: Running a Test
After a test sample (for example, blood) from a patient is added to the test device, the test
device is inserted in the Alere Triage®MeterPro. The meter measures how much of the
substance (a particular protein marker) is present, based on standards that have been pre-
programmed into the meter. The patient identification, the User I.D. and the test results can
be printed out on a paper tape.

In addition to testing samples from patients, the Alere Triage®MeterPro contains pre-
programmed Quality Control (QC) functions that allow the person operating the meter to
monitor quality control.
