Application
Before use, please read the instruction manual that accompanies the Geratherm Urine Infection Control Test Strips. It is best to use the first urine of the morning and to take the sample midstream.
Do not remove the test strip from the aluminium pouch until just before use and grasp it as far away from the reaction fields as possible. Do not hold the test strip in the urine stream until it has been flowing for 1-2 seconds. Ensure that all the reaction fields are thoroughly immersed in the urine.
You can also collect the urine in a clean, dry container. In this case, dip the reaction fields completely in the urine and remove the test strip again immediately in order to prevent the reagents dissolving. When removing the strip from the container, carefully wipe it on the edge of the container to remove excess urine.
Hold the test strip horizontal and lay it on a piece of absorbent tissue in order to prevent the chemical substances on the reaction fields and/or dirty hands coming into contact with the urine. Carefully compare the reaction fields with the corresponding colour bars on the colour chart. To do this, hold the test strip next to the colour bars.
Dispose of the Geratherm Urine Infection Control Test Strip once used.
Always read product information leaflet before use.
