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. Ketosis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketosis

   Test for ketonuria using Bayer Ketostix reagent strips. Urine testing is the most common method of testing for ketones. Urine test strips utilize a nitroprusside reaction with acetoacetate to give a semi-quantitative measure based on color change of the strip. Although beta-hydroxybutyrate is the predominant circulating ketone, urine test ...

4. Ketonuria - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketonuria

   In conditions associated with acidosis, urinary ketones are tested to assess the severity of acidosis and to monitor treatment response. Urine ketones appear before there is any significant increase in blood ketones; [11] therefore, urine ketone measurement is especially helpful in emergency situations.

5. Urinalysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urinalysis

   The interpretation of urinalysis takes into account the results of physical, chemical and microscopic examination and the person's overall condition. Urine test results should always be interpreted using the reference range provided by the laboratory that performed the test, or using information provided by the test strip/device manufacturer. [136]

6. Reference ranges for urine tests - Wikipedia

   Reference ranges for urine tests are described below: Measurement Lower limit Upper limit ... Ketones: n/a: 0 / negative [2] Bilirubin: n/a: 0 / negative [2] Blood: n ...

7. Ketone bodies - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketone_bodies

   Their excretion in urine is very low and undetectable by routine urine tests (Rothera's test). [18] When the rate of synthesis of ketone bodies exceeds the rate of utilization, their concentration in blood increases; this is known as ketonemia. This is followed by ketonuria – excretion of ketone bodies in urine. The overall picture of ...

8. Sodium nitroprusside - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_nitroprusside

   In this test, known as Rothera's test, methyl ketones (CH 3 C(=O)-) under alkaline conditions give bright red coloration (see also iodoform test). Rothera's test was initially applied to detecting ketonuria (a symptom of diabetes) in urine samples. This reaction is now exploited in the form of urine test strips (e.g. "Ketostix"). [61]

9. Urine test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urine_test

   A urine test is any medical test performed on a urine specimen. The analysis of urine is a valuable diagnostic tool because its composition reflects the functioning of many body systems, particularly the kidneys and urinary system , and specimens are easy to obtain. [ 1 ]
