SKU 121-2GP

Urinalysis reagent test strips for glucose and protein (2 GP) are diagnostic tools used to test for the presence of glucose and protein in a urine sample. These test strips contain small squares or pads that are coated with specific reagents that react with glucose and protein in the urine, causing a color change. The color change can then be compared to a color chart to determine the approximate concentration of glucose and protein in the urine.

Glucose is a type of sugar that is normally present in the blood, but should not be present in significant amounts in the urine. The presence of glucose in the urine, known as glucosuria, can be an indication of high blood sugar levels and can be a sign of diabetes or other health conditions.

Protein is usually not present in the urine, as the kidneys filter it out of the blood. The presence of protein in the urine, known as proteinuria, can indicate various kidney problems, such as kidney disease or damage, infection, or excess stress on the kidneys.

Urinalysis reagent test strips for 2 GP are commonly used in doctors' offices, hospitals, and at-home medical testing. They are a simple, non-invasive, and cost-effective way to screen for potential health issues involving glucose and protein levels in the urine. However, they are not a substitute for further medical testing and should always be interpreted by a healthcare professional.

FAQs About Urine Test Strips
  • Urine Test Strips

    Urine test strips, also known as urinalysis dipsticks, are simple diagnostic tools used to quickly screen and analyze the contents of urine. These small, plastic strips have multiple pads or reagent areas, each of which reacts with specific substances in the urine to change color. They are widely used in clinics, hospitals, laboratories, and sometimes at home for routine medical checkups, disease screening, and monitoring.

  • What Do Urine Test Strips Detect?

    Urine test strips can provide information on a variety of substances and properties, including: Glucose: To check for diabetes or high blood sugar. Protein (albumin): To screen for kidney disease. Blood (hematuria): Indicates infections, kidney stones, or trauma. Leukocytes: Suggests urinary tract infection (UTI). Nitrites: Also a marker for UTI (produced by certain bacteria). Ketones: Monitors diabetes, starvation, or metabolic disorders. pH: Measures urine acidity. Specific gravity: Assesses urine concentration (hydration status). Bilirubin and urobilinogen: Assesses liver function and hemolysis. Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C): May interfere with certain results.

  • How are Urine Test Strips Used?

    Collect a fresh urine sample in a clean container. Dip the test strip briefly into the urine. Remove excess liquid by shaking off or blotting the strip. Wait for the specified time (usually 30—120 seconds). Compare the color change on each pad to the reference chart provided with the strip to interpret the results.

  • Common Uses of Urine Test Strips

    Routine health exams: As a quick check for underlying issues. Diabetes management: Monitoring glucose and ketones. Kidney health screening. Diagnosing urinary tract infections (UTI). Pregnancy monitoring: For protein and glucose, among other markers. Drug screening (some specialized strips).

  • What are Urine Test Strip Limitations?

    Not a substitute for comprehensive laboratory analysis. Can give false positives or negatives if not used correctly or if urine is contaminated. Results should always be interpreted by a healthcare provider, especially if abnormal.

  • How Accurate Are Home Urine Test Strips?

    Home urine test strips are highly accurate for general screening (e.g., glucose, ketones, nitrites, protein, pH). They offer over 90% sensitivity and specificity for most parameters when used correctly. For a formal diagnosis or confirmation, consult with your healthcare provider and consider laboratory urinalysis.

  • What Is the Most Accurate Urine Test Strip?

    Multistix and Siemens urinalysis strips are widely regarded for medical-grade accuracy. Choose test strips labeled “CLIA-waived” or “FDA-cleared” for clinical reliability.

  • How Do You Read Urine Test Strips?

    Dip the strip in a fresh urine sample for 1–2 seconds. Remove and gently tap off excess urine. Wait 30–60 seconds (see each pad’s timing guide). Compare the color changes on the pads to the chart on the bottle/container. Record your results and consult healthcare professionals as needed.

  • What Should Never Be Detected in Urine?

    A healthy urine test should never detect: Blood (hematuria) Protein (proteinuria) Glucose (glucosuria) Ketones Nitrites Leukocytes If detected, see a healthcare provider for further testing.

  • What to Avoid Before a Urine Test?

    Avoid intense physical activity and vitamin C supplements 24 hours before testing. Do not eat beets, blackberries, or rhubarb (can color urine red). Avoid diuretics (unless prescribed). Don’t overhydrate—excess water dilutes results.

  • Do I Need a Prescription for Urinalysis Strips?

    No prescription is required. Urine test strips are available over-the-counter for home monitoring and routine health checks.

  • How Long Before a Urine Test Should I Drink Water?

    Avoid drinking large amounts of water 1–2 hours before testing to ensure your sample is not too diluted. Use the first morning urine for the most concentrated, accurate results.

  • What Color Is a Good Urine Test?

    Healthy urine: Pale yellow to amber Abnormal results may appear pink (blood), green, very dark (bilirubin), or cloudy (infection). Urine test strip pads—refer to the color chart; a “negative” or normal value is usually the reference color.

  • What Is a Positive Urine Strip Result?

    A “positive” result indicates an abnormal finding such as glucose, protein, ketones, blood, nitrites, or leukocytes in your urine. Positive results require medical evaluation.

  • What Illness Can Be Detected in Urine?

    Urine test strips help detect and monitor: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) Kidney disease Diabetes mellitus and ketoacidosis Liver disease Hematuria (blood in urine) Dehydration or electrolyte disorders

  • What Color Is Urine When Your Kidneys Are Failing?

    Dark brown, tea-colored, or red urine may signal kidney failure. Test strips may show protein, blood, or abnormal pH. Contact your doctor if you notice these changes.
