The Effect of Haematocrit on Reagent Strip Tests for Glucose
Diabetic Medicine, 1991Four blood glucose reagent strips (BM‐Test 1–44, Glucostix, Hypoguard GA, and Exactech), used in conjunction with measuring devices produced by the same manufacturer, were investigated with respect to the influence of haematocrit. The erythrocytes and plasma of fresh blood samples were separated, then remixed in different proportions to achieve a range

Accuracy of Reagent Strips in Detecting Hypoglycemia in the Emergency Department
Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1998Although reagent strips are commonly used, their reliability to estimate blood glucose concentration and guide administration of dextrose solutions in the emergency department environment has not been proved. We determined the accuracy of visually interpreted reagent strips (Chemstrip bG, Boehringer Mannheim Corp, Indianapolis, IN) and their ability to

Evaluation of Reagent Strips for the Rapid Diagnosis of Nitrite Poisoning
Journal of Analytical Toxicology, 1992Two commercial urine test strips based on the Griess nitrite-specific diazonium salt reaction, having sulfanilamide and para-arsanilic acid as substrates, respectively, were studied as qualitative tests in the rapid diagnosis of nitrite/nitrate poisoning. Their usefulness was compared to other rapid tests, such as the sulfanilic acid-1 naphthylamin and

A STUDY OF REAGENTS USED IN THE STRIPPING OF BRONZES
Studies in Conservation, 1978The action of 'stripping' agents on exposed bronze alloys was studied. Test pieces of tin-bronze and leaded tin-bronze alloys having compositions typical of ancient objects were cast from modern metal stock, simulating procedures used in antiquity, and subjected to the following reagents: alkaline glycerol, alkaline Rochelle salt, Calgon, citric acid ...

Saliva Alcohol Reagent Strips in Altered Response Protocols
Prehospital and Disaster Medicine, 1990AbstractThe prehospital care provider has been limited in his or her initial assessment of patients due to having available only a limited number of simple diagnostic tests. There has not been an accurate field test available to rule out significant ethanol intoxication. We designed a prospective trial for the prehospital setting to test the utility of

Urine reagent strips: an MDA evaluation.
Professional nurse (London, England), 1999Despite being cheap to buy, the annual UK urine reagent strip bill is more than 4 Pounds million. Nurses need to be aware that each company's test strip works differently. They also need to learn about the external factors that can interfere with tests.

Validity of HydraTrend Reagent Strips for the Assessment of Hydration Status
Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2014Hydration is used by athletic governing organizations for weight class eligibility. The measurement of urine specific gravity (USG) as a measure of hydration by reagent strips is a controversial issue. The purpose of this study was to determine the validity of HydraTrend reagent strips that facilitate the correction of USG for alkaline urine samples ...

Reagent strips in the evaluation of cerebrospinal fluid glucose levels
Annals of Tropical Paediatrics, 1987The value of Visidex IIR, Haemo-Glukotest 20-800RR, MultistixR and DextrostixR reagent strips--the latter alone or in combination with a glucometer--in the determination of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) glucose levels has been evaluated and compared with the results of a standard glucose oxidase method (Beckman). Fifty-four CSF specimens were evaluated and
