2. Urine test strip - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urine_test_strip

   Automatic analysis of urine test strips using automated urine test strip analysers is a well-established practice in modern-day urinalysis. They can measure calcium , blood, glucose, bilirubin, urobilinogen, ketones, leukocytes, creatinine , microalbumin , pH, ascorbic acid and protein.

3. Urinalysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urinalysis

   Urine test strips use the concentration of ions in the urine to estimate specific gravity. The test pad contains a polyelectrolyte that releases hydrogen ions in proportion to the concentration of ions in the sample. The consequent pH change is measured using a pH indicator.

4. 5-Sulfosalicylic acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-Sulfosalicylic_acid

   Sulfosalicylic acid is used in urine tests to determine urine protein content. The chemical causes the precipitation of dissolved proteins, which is measured from the degree of turbidity. [1] It is also used for integral colour anodizing. With water it is used as a shuttle solution for the CAS assay to test for siderophore.

5. Urine test - Wikipedia

   Example of a container used for collecting 24-hour urine samples. This particular container is free of trace metals to allow for accurate measurement of these substances in urine. The techniques used to collect urine specimens vary based on the desired test. A random urine, meaning a specimen that is collected at any time, can be used for many ...

Specifically, test strip may refer to: Food testing strips; Glucose meter test strip; Lipolysis test strip; Urine test strip; Universal indicator pH test strips; It may also refer to: Teststrip, an art gallery in Auckland, New Zealand

7. Leukocyte esterase - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leukocyte_esterase

   A urine sample that tests positive for both nitrite and leukocyte esterase should be cultured for pathogenic bacteria. [citation needed] "It has been proposed that the reagent strip for leukocyte esterase designed for the testing of urine (Combur test UX) could be a useful tool for diagnosing spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP)."

8. Nitrite test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrite_test

   A nitrite test is a standard component of a urinary test strip. A positive test for nitrites in the urine is called nitrituria. This test is commonly used in diagnosing urinary tract infections (UTIs). A positive nitrite test indicates that the cause of the UTI is a Gram-negative organism, most commonly Escherichia coli. The reason for nitrites ...

9. Urinary cast - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urinary_cast

   The most common type of cast, hyaline casts are solidified Tamm–Horsfall mucoprotein secreted from the tubular epithelial cells of individual nephrons. Low urine flow, concentrated urine, or an acidic environment can contribute to the formation of hyaline casts, and as such, they may be seen in normal individuals in dehydration or vigorous exercise.
