Transasia Bio-Medicals Ltd Uro-dip 240

Users of urine analysers and strips will appreciate this-all along, urine analysis done with urine reagent strips and urine analysers had to be often re-confirmed with wet chemistry tests such as Fouchet's for Bilirubin, Benedict for Glucose and SSA or Acetoacetic acid for protein. This is because in most of the cases, the colour of the urine (due to medication, excess blood, etc) caused false positive reactions on the strips, which was duly reported by the analysers.

Erba's Uro-dipcheck range of analysers and strips are uniquely designed to overcome this problem. The reagent strips are equipped with special calibration pads that absorb the colour of urine and the colour development on the other pads is corrected for this colour-in other words, the system ensures that the colour change of pads is due to the urinary analytes and not due to the colouration of urine.

This and other features such as dual-mode operation, high through put ranging from 240 to 500 tests per hour, 1,000 record system memory, RS 232 serial port connectivity, bi-level liquid stable controls make this range the most complete urine analysis range available.

Products available in the range:

• Urine analysers—Uro-dipcheck 240 and Uro-dipcheck 500.
• Urine strips—Uro-dip 2 VPG (Protein + Glucose), Uro-dip 2 VGK (Glucose + Ketone), Uro-dip 10 A (10-parameter analysis), Uro-dip 11 G (11-parameter analysis with ascorbic acid).
• Urine Controls—Ud Trol controls (Level 1 and Level 2).
