The results can indicate the presence of pathologic processes in urinary and endocrine systems. Quantitative and qualitative composition of urine – basic research in laboratory diagnostics.
Laboratory analysis of the urine helps to diagnose the disease in the first stage, allowing timely initiation of treatment. Automatic and semi-automatic urine analyzer is able to carry out more than 700 tests per hour.
The principle of operation of devices based on the use of strips for testing. They’re coated with a special chemical that interact with the urine stained areas of the test strips.
Popular types
Choosing urinalysis, specialists take into account the average number of patients who are tested during the day. For laboratory located in a regional center requires a device with a large capacity, with the ability to conduct more than 500 studies urine for 60 minutes. For hospitals located in small towns, suitable for compact analyzers.
Which devices are used most often:
- the Laura Smart reader. Semi-automatic device is able to test 60 strips per hour. Laura Smart can work both from AC or DC current source;
- fixed urine analyzer Labureader Plus. The device determines the quantitative composition of the 11 ingredients of the urine. The device is equipped with memory for saving results of more than 1 thousand research;
- biochemical analyzer Dirui CS-T240. Automatic the device is so compact that can be placed on the laboratory table. With it, you can hold up to 250 studies within the hour;
- a device for determining protein in the urine Belur. The development of domestic engineers allows high accuracy to measure the quantitative content of proteins in biological liquids;
- universal device Aution Eleven. The analyzer is able to handle up to 500 urine samples per hour. The device is suitable for laboratories both large and small settlements;
- automatic analyzer UroMeter. In addition to quantitative characteristics of urine, the device displays on the LCD display the color and turbidity of the biological fluid.
Below are the automatic urine analyzers, which are equipped with large laboratories and medical centers.
CL-50
Device CL-50 relates to opto-electronic instrumentation for the study of urine. Using it in laboratories to determine the qualitative, semiquantitative and quantitative composition of the biological sample.
For semi-automatic urine analyzer is characterized by the measurement of the concentration of such compounds as:
- the urobilinogen;
- bilirubin;
- ketone body;
- proteins;
- nitrites;
- leukocytes;
- glucose.
The concentration of chemical and biologically active substances is determined using a special test strips which are deposited on the reagent zone. Urinalysis based on the measurement of the degree of reflection of the light flux on the reactive sites when applying them to the sample. This interaction leads to staining of the zones of the test strip. Change of the read scanning system, which converts the optical signal into an electrical displayed on the screen in the form of digital symbols.
DocUReader
The device is used to determine the qualitative and quantitative composition of urine in the laboratory.
Urine analyzer Docureader equipped with LEDs:
- appearance of red color indicates the development in the human body the pathological process;
- the green color shows that the human health is all right.
Test procedure urine analyzer Docureader is based on using a reflective quantitative measurements of the energy characteristics of the radiation field. The reading and study of the painted zones of the test strips are coated in urine is produced automatically.
What can be determined using the device in the urine sediment:
- vitamin C;
- leukocytes;
- glucose;
- bilirubin;
- ketones;
- nitrites;
- proteins;
- blood.
The importance of the ability of the instrument to determine the acidity of urine and the urobilinogen. Urine analyzer can be connected to the computer to create a database storage documents. This versatile device is equipped with often the veterinary clinic.
Uriscan Uriscan Pro and Optima
Urine analyzer Uriscan determines the quantitative and qualitative composition of urine in 13 indicators.
The unit processes more than 700 biological samples within an hour, so it can be used in laboratories of large settlements. The research is conducted using various types of test strips: for easy analysis, or procedures increased level of difficulty. Device Uriscan Optima performs the same function but are more compact and less productive.
Working with urine analyzer – simply insert the test strip coated with a urine sample and press the button. After a few seconds, the quantitative parameters required for the study of the compounds will affect the digital display.
Using Uriscan Pro, you can define the content:
- red blood cells;
- nitrite;
- glucose;
- bilirubin;
- of urobilinogen;
- ketone bodies;
- leukocytes;
- proteins;
- ascorbic acid.
Urine analyzer Uriscan About measures specific gravity of urine and its acidity. The unit is set directly after the acquisition and does not need frequent adjustment. The performance of laboratory tests is directly depending on the time frame of the collected urine and its storage conditions. Uriscan device equipped with a memory in which can be stored over 2 thousand measurement results.
Clinitek Status
In operation of the device does not require prior calibration, all the values are stored in memory Clinitek.
The analyzer determines the concentration in urine of these components:
- glucose;
- leukocytes;
- of urobilinogen;
- of albumin;
- bilirubin;
- blood;
- creatinine;
- ketone bodies;
- nitrite;
- protein.
The device is able to determine the relative density of urine, as well as its acidity. The compactness of urinary analyzer allows to carry out diagnostics outside the laboratory.
Obtained after the analysis of the information is assessed by several parameters. After decoding the results the device, the patient is sent with the report to your physician for final diagnosis and choice of treatment tactics. As a result of using the parameter analyzer is further biochemical and instrumental diagnostics.
