Common Questions asscoiated with UTIs

Q: What are the common symptoms of UTI?
A: The common symptoms of UTI include burning or pain during urination, frequent urination, fever, and back or
groin pain.

Q: Can I have UTI without symptoms?
A: Yes. UTI can occur without symptoms in young children, pregnant women and the elderly.

Q: Do I have to test with first morning urine?
A: Although you can test at any time of the day, your first morning urine would have the most bacteria in it if UTI is
present. Avoid testing during your menstrual period.

Q: How accurate is the test?
A: The results of the UTI Urinary Tract Infection Test Strips were compared to another commercial test. The study
showed 94.4% accuracy for the Leukocyte test and 98.4% for the Nitrite test.

Q: Do certain foods, alcohol or common medications affect the test?
A: In general, most substances will not interfere with the test. Consult your physician if you are taking antibiotics.
Some medications (e.g. Vitamin B2) can affect the color of your urine and may cause false results. Large
quantities of Vitamin C may cause false negative results.

How to use

  • Allow the strip and urine specimen to reach room temperature (15-30ºC or 59-86ºF) prior to testing.
  • Gently wash the genital area thoroughly with soap and water then rinse well prior to testing.
  1. Remove the strip from the closed bottle or the sealed pouch, and use it as soon as possible. Close the bottle tightly after removing the required number of strip(s).
  2. Hold the end of the strip farthest away from the test pad(s) and begin urinating. After 1 or 2 seconds of passing urine, hold the strip downward with the test pads pointing into the urine stream for 1-2 seconds. Make sure the test pads are completely wet. Note: If you prefer, you can urinate into a clean and dry container. Dip the test pad(s) of the strip completely into the urine for 1-2 seconds and remove immediately. Run the edge of the strip against the rim of the urine container to remove excess urine.
  3. After removing the strip from your urine, immediately bring the edge of the strip into contact with an absorbent material (e.g. paper towel) to remove excess urine. Lay the strip with the test pad(s) facing upwards and begintiming. 
  4. Read result at 1 minute for Nitrite and at 2 minutes for Leukocytes. Compare the test pad(s) to the colour blocks on the colour chart. Hold the strip close to the colour blocks, and carefully match each pad to the colour chartfor that test. 

Note: Do not read results after 3 minutes

Please read all the information in the package insert before performing the test.

  • For urine testing only.
