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.

This was really easy to use. I scanned the QR code on the back of the pack. It takes you to their website. It offers a few different videos according to language spoken. I followed the instructions and it was all done in a couple of minutes. Water droplet added using the little pipette and then used the lancet tool. I made sure my hands were clean as well as using the alcohol wipe beforehand. If you make sure you're hands are warm, or it's warmer weather it's much easier to get the amount of blood needed for the sticks. As you can see from the photo, a conclusive result of O+! I think my family are now going to buy their own kits to check their blood groups! It's a fantastic little kit, to find out quite important information. Highly recommended!

Test is useless,a total waste of money,not worth a tenner just incase anyone is considering buying it

I want to do my children's blood groups but wanted to make sure the test was accurate first. .I'm B positive and the test did show that. It was very easy to use and a very fast result. Just follow the instructions properly and you will get a result in less than a minute . I have now purchased my children's test.

Having a conversation with a friend about blood types, and because she knew her blood type and that of her family, she assumed everyone knew theirs and was a common thing, however turns out noone else did either! Decided to get one of these to do not for any particular reason, but just to see what it would say. Arrived in sealed packaging with all included bits and bobs needed. I have a thing about needles so had to get my friend to prick me with the lancet and drip my blood as couldn't bring myself to do it myself, but once it was done it wasn't so bad. My mother thought I would be an O or an A type as she is O but wasn't sure of my fathers blood group. According to the test im A+ so seems fairly accurate, but obviously don't rely on it 100% for medical situations. Slight downside is we didnt give it enough time to dry before putting the sticky plastic over it, and it managed to turn on its side in my locker so dripped blood and ruined the results and had to throw away.

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.

Make sure you read instructions carefully before beginning as you have to work reasonably fast when you begin. The link to a video is useful too. I needed to use a second Lancet on a second finger (which I had for glucose testing) to get enough blood onto the sticks. The results are not easy to interpret as the illustrations are much more graphic than the actual results. I ran a photo through 2 different AI programmes which both gave the same interpretation... which agreed with my best attempt at interpreting, so I'm satisfied I got a result.

Simple to use and effective. Got my blood group in 5 mins of opening the pack
