1 x Blood Type Test Kit - Group A, B, RHD Testing - Home EldonCard Tests

It works. Was able to get my vlood type within minutes. The important things are to read the instructions properly and to not cross-contaminate the stuff inside the little circles. Remember to add your drop of water to each circle as well. Just one drop. The finger prick device worked very well for me. Remember to shake or swing your arm and to rub the arm and finger/hands first to get blood flowing properly and to warm hands up by rubbing which also helps blood flow. Then press the device firmly to finger before pressing the button. Pic shows 2 lancets but my kit came with only one and in a diff shape. It worked fine but just in case it fails or you accidentally deploy it, have a sterile needle ready just in case. My lancet worked a bit too well and an extra drop nearly ruined my eldron card so make sure you have a tissue handy just in case. R3sults were easy enough to reads. Expiry date on mine was October 2026. Good kit. I finally know my blood type.

I already know my blood group is B+ but wanted to see how accurate this test was. 100% accurate in my case! Easy to use and instructions easy to follow.

Purchased two of these tests, the first one was not really a clear result so purchased a second. This one the puncture device was faulty and did not make an imprint on my finger as did not seem to reach. Not really happy

Very easy. In fact it was so easy I thought I'd done it wrong. Read the instructions first. All of them. That way the steps in the test make sense when you do it. As it happened I didn't need to use the lancet because I cut my finger and used the drips from that. [Note: a cut or cat scratch producing clean blood is perfectly suitable substitute for the lancet, but never use blood from a dog or cat bite because the saliva and bacteria which will wreck the test and you'll get a wrong result. [Obviously once you've done your test remember to clean and treat your wound. Clean wounds don't scar; infected wounds do]. The test is worth doing and can save time in an emergency. **Public health announcement**: A hobby horse of mine, as a retired vet who has worked with cats for decades... If you are bitten by a cat you need antibiotics. Even if you upset the doctor by telling them what to do. But it is your hand at risk, not theirs. Cat teeth are long and inject bacteria deep down around the bones where washing with disinfectant won't reach. If left the cleaned skin will heal but the bacteria deep inside will be warm and cosy and will multiply so by five days you have a burst abscess. Abscesses are painful and require a lot of work to sort and you could still lose a finger. So get antibiotics early. This advice is approved by both the vets and doctors governing bodies.

Follow the simple instructions, take your time and it is very simple to do. Good results.

This is an amazing bit of kit. Very easy to use and very reassuring

Although the product seems simple enough to use, unfortunately it didn't work for me. The 'pricker' can only be used once In my case, it didn't penetrate my skin enough to provide sufficient blood drops (despite swinging arm to improve blood flow, etc). By the time I then managed to puncture my finger with a sewing needle instead, it was too late. Maybe you'll have better luck, but for me it was a waste of money - the results are too inconclusive due to the lack of a separate lance/pricker.

Easy to use, very impressed
