Product details.
Intended use: Reckon U-Stik reagent strips are dip-and-read strips for the visual, qualitative and semi-quantitative testing of urine for urobilinogen, glucose, ketones, bilirubin, albumin (protein), nitrite, pH, occult blood, specific gravity and leukocytes. Each pad is read against the colour chart on the bottle label, with no instrument needed. Manufactured at Reckon’s Vadodara facility under ISO 13485:2016 quality management, and released against reference standards before dispatch.
The specifications and steps on this page are from the datasheet, last updated 04-2019. The datasheet governs: read it before use, or ask us.

- Parameters
- 10 on US10-60U: urobilinogen, glucose, ketones, bilirubin, albumin, nitrite, pH, blood, specific gravity, leukocytes; 2 on US2-060: glucose and albumin; 3 on US3-60V: glucose, albumin and pH
- Sample
- Fresh, well-mixed, uncentrifuged urine; test within 1 hour, or refrigerate
- Reading time
- 60 seconds; colour changes after 2 minutes have no diagnostic value
- Ranges
- pH 5 to 9; specific gravity 1.000 to 1.030
- Limitation
- Drugs that colour urine (azo dyes, nitrofurantoin, riboflavin) can mask or mimic reactions; ascorbic acid can lower glucose and blood readings
- Pack
- Bottles of 50 or 100 strips
- Storage
- 2 to 30 °C in the original, tightly capped bottle; do not refrigerate or freeze

Performance2 figures
- Detection limit
- Urobilinogen 0.1 mg/dl; glucose 50 to 100 mg/dl; ketones 5 mg/dl acetoacetic acid; bilirubin 0.5 mg/dl; albumin 5 to 10 mg/dl; nitrite 0.05 mg/dl; blood 0.015 mg/dl hemoglobin or 5 to 10 red cells/µl; leukocytes 20 to 25 WBC/µl
- Agreement
- 100% within one colour block against a competitor's strip for every analyte except albumin (over 95%), in 94 patient samples at two clinical sites
Procedure at a glance5 steps
- Check the expiry date, take a strip, and replace the cap immediately.
- Dip the strip completely in fresh, well-mixed, uncentrifuged urine for no more than 1 second.
- Draw the edge against the rim of the container to remove excess urine, and hold the strip horizontal.
- At 60 seconds, compare each pad with its colour chart on the bottle label, in good light.
- Ignore colour changes after 2 minutes, or changes only along the edges of a pad.
