How to Perform Urine Testing with the UroColor Series

Performing urine testing with the UroColor Series is straightforward, but it’s essential to follow the instructions carefully to ensure accurate results. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

1. Gather Supplies: Ensure you have the UroColor Series testing kit, a clean collection container, and a timer.
2. Collect Urine Sample: Collect a midstream urine sample in the clean container. This means starting to urinate, then collecting the sample midstream to reduce contamination.
3. Prepare Testing Strips: Open the UroColor Series testing strip and hold it at the colored end (without touching the test pads).
4. Dip and Wait: Dip the test strip into the urine sample for the specified time (usually a few seconds to a minute as per the instructions).
5. Compare Results: After the specified waiting time, compare the color changes on the test pads to the color chart provided with the UroColor Series testing kit.
6. Record and Interpret Results: Record the results for each parameter tested and interpret them based on the reference ranges provided in the kit’s instructions.
7. Dispose of Test Strip: Dispose of the used test strip according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
