8 Parameter Urine Test Strips
8 parameter urine test strips are a practical option for checking several common urine markers without needing a wider 10, 11 or 12 parameter panel. They are commonly used as a quick screening aid for general urinary health, hydration status, glucose and ketone monitoring, urinary tract indicators and metabolic health markers.
The One Step range is used by healthcare professionals, doctors, hospitals, care providers and home users across Ireland and the UK. These strips are high quality, easy to use and simple to read against the supplied colour chart.
These 8 parameter urine test strips test for:
- Leukocytes
- Nitrite
- Protein
- Blood
- Ketone
- Glucose
- pH
- Specific Gravity
What these parameters may indicate:
- Leukocytes: May indicate white blood cells in urine, commonly used as a urinary tract indicator.
- Nitrite: May indicate nitrites produced by certain bacteria in urine.
- Protein: Raised protein in urine may be used as a kidney-related or urinary tract indicator.
- Blood: May indicate the presence of blood in urine.
- Ketone: Raised ketones may indicate the body is using fat for energy.
- Glucose: Raised glucose in urine may be associated with glucose metabolism issues.
- pH: Shows urine acidity or alkalinity.
- Specific Gravity: Shows urine concentration and hydration status.
Our team is here to support all customer queries and help you choose the right urine test strip type. Urine test strips are a screening aid only and any unusual, unexpected or repeated results should be discussed with a healthcare professional.
