CLINITEK® Microalbumin 2 Strips provide albumin, creatinine and albumin-to-creatinine ratio results in one minute. The CLINITEK® Microalbumin product is useful to test for microalbuminuria in patients with diabetes or hypertension in order to detect early kidney disease. The strips are used on the CLINITEK Status® family of analysers.

Product Highlights

• Albumin, creatinine, and albumin-to-creatinine ratio results to help identify clinically relevant microalbuminuria
• Increased sensitivity of albumin as recommended by ADA guidelines: sensitivity as low as 2.0 mg/dL
• Results are corrected for varying urine concentrations when used on the CLINITEK Status urine analyzer, replacing the need for 24-hour urine collection and measurement.

Product Features

CLINITEK® Microalbumin 2 Reagent Strips make it simple and easy to test patients with diabetes. Because testing for microalbuminuria can detect kidney disease in its early stages, physicians may begin intervention earlier than might otherwise have been possible. CLINITEK Microalbumin 2 Reagent Strips permit detection of elevated albumin sooner, more sensitively and more specifically than products designed for general protein testing*.

Benefits

• The CLINITEK Microalbumin 2 Reagent Strips provide semi-quantitative results with a hard-copy report on the CLINITEK Status® family of analysers, making them ideal for point-of-care testing. Patient’s urine sample sticks can be tested immediately during a physician, clinic or hospital visit, rather than sending them out and waiting for results.
• The urine sample test strips are also convenient for testing random samples, eliminating the need to collect a timed sample.
