Abstract
An analyte control solution system tests a plurality of identical test strips, with each test strip having a plurality of different reactive chemicals attached on pads. The analyte control solution system has a first mixture of a first plurality of different analytes, with each of the first plurality of different analytes not reacting with one another, but reacting with a different one of the dipstick pads to generate a visual indicator. The first plurality of different analytes do not react with all of the pads attached to each test strip. Another control solution has a second mixture, physically different from the first mixture, of a second plurality of different analytes. Each of the second plurality of different analytes does not react with one another, but reacts with a different one of the plurality of different reactive chemicals on the test strip to generate a visual indicator. The second plurality of different analytes do not react with any of the different reactive chemicals (on the dipstick pads) reacting to the analytes of the first mixture.
