Influence of Vitamin C on Urine Dipstick Test Results.
Annals of clinical and laboratory science, 2016Vitamin C is a strong reducing agent found at high levels in various foods, and it may influence the results of urine strip tests even at an ordinary consumption levels. After oral administration, we measured urine vitamin C levels using urine strips and evaluated whether vitamin C interfered with various test items. The utility of a urine strip with a

Predicting urine culture results by dipstick testing and phase contrast microscopy
Pathology, 2003Urine is the most frequently received clinical specimen for bacterial culture. To determine whether dipstick or microscopy results reliably predicted the presence or absence of a reportable urinary pathogen we performed dipstick testing and phase contrast microscopy on unspun urine from 500 specimens.

Proteinuria and renal disease: prognostic value of urine dipstick testing for leukocytes
Pediatric Nephrology, 2006Proteinuria is utilized to screen for underlying kidney disease and serves as a marker of disease progression. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that patients with proteinuria will have a higher frequency of urine dipstick positive for leukocytes as an index of noninfectious renal inflammation. In this retrospective analysis, 1,099 urine

[Usefulness of dipstick test for determining leukocytes and bacteria in urine].
Hinyokika kiyo. Acta urologica Japonica, 1992The value of a simple dipstick test (BMtestLN, Boehringer Mannheim-Shionogi) for determination of leukocytes and bacteria in urine was examined. This test consisted of detection of esterase, an enzyme present in leukocytes and the nitrate reduced by bacteria. A total of 666 clinical urine specimens were tested with both tests.
