A blood lancet, or simply lancet, is a small medical implement, similar to a small scalpel but with a double-edged blade or needle. Lancets are used to make punctures to obtain small blood specimens, are generally disposable, and are commonly used in the treatment of diabetes. The small blood samples obtained can be tested for blood glucose, hemoglobin, and many other blood components. Lancets are also used to prick the skin in skin testing for allergies.
Nice Information and I would also like to share that Amkay Products blood lancet needles are very sharp and allows easy penetration in the body thereby minimizing patient trauma.
