Keto Diastix Reagent Strip For Urinalysis 50

Keto Diastix Reagent Strip For Urinalysis is used for detecting and monitoring ketone (acetoacetic acid) and glucose levels in urine. It helps individuals track metabolic changes associated with high blood glucose levels or ketogenic dietary practices. These strips provide a simple, rapid, and effective method for assessing urinary ketones and glucose in a single step, suitable for both healthcare professionals and individuals managing high blood glucose levels or following low-carb diets. Each strip is formulated with two separate test areas impregnated with reagents that react visibly to the presence of either ketone bodies or glucose in the urine. The colour change in each test area indicates varying levels of ketone or glucose concentration, allowing for a visual, semi-quantitative estimation. 

• Test Parameters: Tests both urine ketones and urine glucose on a single strip.
   
• Ketone Test Area (7.1% Sodium Nitroprusside, 92.9% Buffer): The ketone test section contains sodium nitroprusside, which may help detect the presence of acetoacetic acid, a type of ketone body. This reaction helps regulate fat metabolism and dietary ketosis. The colour change from buff-pink to purple provides a visible indication of ketone levels in urine.
   
• Glucose Test Area (2.2% Glucose Oxidase, 1.0% Peroxidase, 8.1% Potassium Iodide, 69.8% Buffer, 18.9% Non-reactive Ingredients): This section utilises glucose oxidase and peroxidase enzymes, which help detect glucose levels by converting it into a measurable colour change. The enzymatic reaction is quick and convenient for monitoring blood sugar overflow into urine, especially in diabetes—the buffer and potassium iodide support consistent test conditions and visible output.
   
• Reagent Pads: Each pad is coated with specific chemicals that react to ketones or glucose.
   
• Sample Requirement: Needs only a very small urine sample for an accurate reading.
   
• Result Time: Gives ketone results within seconds and glucose results shortly after.
   
• Reading Method: Colours on the strip are compared with the scale printed on the bottle.
   
• Strip Material: Made from firm, moisture-resistant plastic to ensure consistent performance.
   
• Dual Monitoring: Helps check ketone buildup and glucose spikes together for better metabolic tracking.
   
• Quick and Simple Use: Just dip, wait a few seconds, and match the colour to the chart.
   
• Home-Friendly: Designed for convenient, everyday urinalysis without lab equipment.
   
• Diagnostic Support: Useful for people monitoring diabetes, ketone levels, or dietary changes.
   
• Non-Toxic Design: Free from mercury and harsh materials, making it safe to handle.

• Monitors Glucose Levels in Urine: Keto Diastix Reagent Strip For Urinalysis contains a glucose test area that may help assess excess glucose in urine, which might indicate poor glycemic control. This can be particularly useful for diabetic individuals who need to regularly track sugar spikes and adjust medications, insulin, or dietary habits accordingly.
   
• Detects Ketosis During Low-Carb Diets: For individuals on ketogenic or low-carb diets, the ketone section may help monitor fat metabolism by measuring ketones in urine. Keto Diastix Reagent Strip For Urinalysis can help evaluate whether the body has entered a state of ketosis, which is often a dietary goal for weight loss or metabolic balance.
   
• Helps Identify Risk of High Blood Glucose Levels Ketoacidosis (DKA): The presence of both high glucose and ketones in urine might help identify a potential risk of high blood glucose levels ketoacidosis, especially in insulin-dependent diabetics.
   
• Early Detection of Metabolic Imbalances: These strips offer early warning signs of imbalances in carbohydrate and fat metabolism. By assessing both glucose and ketone presence, Keto Diastix might help individuals track systemic changes before symptoms become severe, allowing for proactive lifestyle or treatment modifications.
   
• Hydration and Fasting Effects: Dehydration or extended fasting can affect ketone and glucose levels. Regular testing with Keto Diastix may help users better understand how hydration, fasting, or physical stress is influencing their internal biochemical state, encouraging smarter health decisions.

• Remove one reagent strip from the bottle and recap immediately.
• Dip the strip into a fresh urine sample and remove immediately.
• Compare the test areas with the colour chart provided on the bottle within the specified time (typically within 30–60 seconds).
• Use only as directed for in vitro diagnostic use.

• For in vitro diagnostic use only – not for internal consumption.
• Store at room temperature below 25°C.
• Keep away from direct sunlight and moisture.
• Do not use strips after the expiry date.
• Close the container tightly after each use to avoid exposure to air.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• Discard any discoloured or damaged strips.
• Do not freeze.
