French term or phrase: bandelettes

Diabetic devices for blood glucose readings. I know "dip-stick" is used for blood glucose urine tests. Can I just use "band(s)" or is there another term for this? TIA, Jason.

Si on choisit réellement ce lecteur pour des personnes ayant une baisse de leur acuité visuelle (grâce à la fenêtre plus large du lecteur), il aurait fallu des **bandelettes** un peu plus larges.

Absence de code évite les oublis lors de changement de lots de **bandelettes** et donc les erreurs de résulats.
