W E LC O M E Thank you for choosing MX3 Diagnostics! This manual will guide you through the basics of the MX3 Hydration Testing System for measuring and tracking hydration status in groups and individuals. MX3 believes that our customers should have the ability to perform medical grade testing whenever and wherever they choose. Our first product offering is this Hydration Testing System. We believe it will transform the way you think about hydration and its effect on human performance and overall health.
INTENDED USE Proper hydration is an important factor in human cognitive and physical performance. For individuals who must perform and react under pressure, such as athletes and warfighters, hydration status is important to measure and track. Until MX3 there has not been an easy and quick method for doing so. The MX3 Hydration Testing System (MX3 System) uses patent-pending biometric and microfluidic technology to measure hydration status in individuals rapidly and cost effectively.

T H E M X3 H Y D R AT I O N S E N S O R MX3 Hydration Sensors are single-use disposable test strips that use microfluidic technology to sample saliva and make SOSM measurements via the MX3 Device. To perform a measurement, the user will insert the sensor into the sensor port (as shown below) and then will be prompted to take a saliva sample at the sample port.
T H E M X3 SENSOR DISPENSER The MX3 Sensor Dispenser can store up to 50 MX3 Hydration Sensors. The dispenser offers an easy to use storage solution and a seamless transfer of the sensor into the MX3 Device, minimizing potential contamination of sensors due to manual handling, particularly when making multiple or group measurements in the field.
