The test requires only one dip and 10 seconds to deliver three results, with no need for urine pre-treatment. Suitable for routine hospital urinalysis and large-scale screening, even by non-specialists due to its simplicity. Helps optimize laboratory workflow by allowing ancillary staff to perform basic tests, freeing technologists for more complex tasks. Useful for diagnosing and managing urinary tract infections, metabolic conditions, and monitoring therapy (e.g., sulphonamide therapy, chemotherapy for genito-urinary infections). Glucose: Essential for diabetes screening and management; Combistix is specific for glucose and does not react to lactose, making it reliable during pregnancy. Proteinuria is a key indicator of renal abnormalities, vascular disease, or pre-eclampsia. Its absence is reassuring. The test is sensitive and can be performed accurately by inexperienced users. The strip has three color-coded, reagent-impregnated areas separated by barriers for clear results.Simple procedure: dip, wait 10 seconds, and compare colors to a chart. Packaged in air-tight bottles of 100 strips, available through standard medical supply channels. Combistix offers a fast, reliable, and easy-to-use method for routine urine screening, supporting both clinical diagnosis and efficient laboratory operations.nurse training, lister house, ames company, combistix
