URINE STRIPS
This test is based on a double indicator system which gives Ketones are normally not present in urine. Detectable a broad range of colors covering the entire urinary pH range. Ketone levels may occur in urine during physiological Colors range from orange to yellow and green to blue. The stress conditions such as fasting, pregnancy and expected range for normal urine specimens from newborns frequent strenuous exercise. In starvation diets, or in Urine Strip 10ME 100 Ketones, Spec.Grav., Blood, is pH 5-7.4 The expected range for other normal urine other abnormal carbohydrate metabolism situations, specimens is pH 4.5-8, with an average result of pH 6.4 Ketones appear in the urine in excessively high concentration before serum Ketones are elevated.8 Legal’s test principle is the test basis. This test reveals the presence of granulocyte esterases. The esterases cleave a derivatized pyrazole amino acid ester to liberate derivatized hydroxy pyrazole. Then react with a This test is based on the azo-coupling reaction of a diazonium salt to produce a violet dye.

Reactions may occur with urine containing large doses of chlorpromazine or rifampen that might be mistaken for positive Bilirubin. The presence of Bilirubin- derived bile pigments may mask the Bilirubin reaction. This phenomenon is characterized by color development on the test patch that does not correlate with the colors on the color chart. Large concentrations of Ascorbic Acid may decrease sensitivity.
