{"product_id":"keto-test-gk-test-strip","title":"Keto-Test GK Test Strip","description":"\u003cp\u003eKeto-Test GK Test Stripis a test strip used for semi-quantitatively estimating glucose and ketone in urine samples. It is a disposable and ready-to-use plastic strip affixed with two reagent areas for testing, one for glucose and the other for Ketone. The Keto-TestGK test strips are packed in an air-tight plastic bottle containing a desiccant. When dipped in the urine sample, the strip colour is read visually within 40 seconds, requiring no additional laboratory equipment for testing.Uses: For semi-quantitatively estimating glucose and ketone in urine samplesProduct Features and Specifications:Glucose:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis test is based on a double sequential enzyme reaction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eGlucose oxidase converts urine glucose to gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eSubsequently, peroxidase converts hydrogen peroxide into water and nascent oxygen\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe nascent oxygen liberates iodine from potassium iodide to produce colours ranging from green to brown depending on the urine glucose concentration\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKetone:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe test is based on the principle of Rothera's test\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this reaction, acetoacetic acid in an alkaline medium will react with sodium nitroprusside to produce a purple colour\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe term ketones represents three intermediate products of fat metabolism, namely acetone, acetoacetic acid and B-hydroxybutyric acid\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe test strip is specific only to acetoacetic acid\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt does not measure B-hydroxybutyric acid and is only slightly sensitive to acetone if glycine is present\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDirections For Use:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis procedure must be followed strictly to achieve reliable results\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eCollect fresh, well-mixed, uncentrifuged urine in a clean and dry container\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eRemove one strip at a time from the bottle and replace the cap immediately and tightly\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eDip the reagent areas into urine for 1 to 2 seconds. While removing the strip from the urine, run the edge along the container’s wall and tap to remove excess urine from the strip\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eHold the strip close to the colour chart provided on the label and match carefully. The colour chart should be matched under good light (but not direct sunlight). The glucose results should be read at 30 seconds, and the ketone results at 40 seconds\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eAvoid touching the strip directly on the colour chart, as this will soil the chart. Interpret the results of the colour obtained falls between two adjacent colour blocks. Colour changes that occur after 40 seconds are of no quantitative diagnostic value\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStorage and Safety Information:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDo not transfer the strips from their original bottle to any other bottle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eDo not remove the desiccant from the bottle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eReplace the cap immediately and tightly after removing the reagent strips to maintain reagent reactivity\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eKeto-lestGK should be protected from moisture; this will prevent deterioration during storage\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eCare must be taken not to touch the test reagent areas of unused strips\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eAll test reagent strips must be used within four months of opening the bottle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eWorking areas and specimen containers should be free of detergents and other contaminating substances\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eDip test areas in urine completely but briefly (1-2 seconds) to avoid dissolving the reagents from the test area\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eRead test results carefully at the time specified\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Accurex Biomedical Pvt.
