Although – just read some info on the internet and it says the readings are: Test Result: Referenced to plasma/serum glucose.

So does that mean they are readings for plasma?

In that case, why are the factory settings for ‘low’ blood sugar still 3.9?

Also, just did some searches, and found several pages where people are confused about differing blood readings form different meters. It’s clear that are comparing plasma readers with whole blood readers and have no idea that they are.
