Combur 9 Test Strips

Roche utilizes the same standardised, unique technology in the visual test strips and all of the urinalysis instruments. Reliable and precise results are important, since adulterated results can lead to false negative results or re-testing of patients. Combur test strips can be a useful indicator of urinary tract infections and other conditions.

These strips test for:

Leukocytes
Nitrite
pH
Protein
Glucose
Ketones
Urobilinogen
Bilirubin
Blood
How to do it
Collect urine sample in clean, sterile specimen container.
Dip test strip into ­urine for not more than 1 second.
When withdrawing the strip wipe side edge of the test strip along the rim of vessel to remove excess urine.
After 60 seconds (leukocytes 60 – 120 seconds), compare reaction colours of the test patches with the colour scales on the label.
Colour changes appearin

The unique construction technology of the Combur 9 test strips avoid interference from components like glue and largely eliminate the interference of ascorbic acid, proving excellent results. Low instances of false-negatives minimize the testing time and increase the cost efficiency.

The Combur Test strips are used on all analysers across the entire Roche urinalysis portfolio, delivering high-quality results and improved efficiency across the laboratory network.
