Los Angeles-based Diagnostic Automation/Cortez Diagnostics, Inc. offers a Urine Reagent Strip (Protein) Rapid Test for the semi-quantitative and qualitative detection of Protein in urine.  The Urine Reagent Strip for Urinalysis is for in-vitro diagnostic use only.

The Urine Reagent Strip (Protein) Rapid Test is based on the protein error-of-indicator principle.  At a constant pH, the development of any green color is due to the presence of protein.  Colors range from yellow for a Negative reaction, to yellow-green and green to blue-green for a Positive reaction.

The test area of the Urine Reagent Strip (Protein) Rapid Test is more sensitive to albumin than to globulin, hemoglobin, Bence-Jones proteins, and mucoprotein; a negative result does not rule out the presence of these other proteins.  The test area is sensitive to 15 mg/dl albumin.  Depending on the inherent variability in clinical urine lesser concentration may be detected under certain conditions.

Notable features of the Urine Reagent Test Strip (Protein) Rapid Test:
    •    reliable and inexpensive
    •    easy-to-understand directions
    •    clear preparation and storage procedures
    •    simple specimen collection directions
