Test-It Adulteration Products

Price: R 180.00 (Excluding VAT at 14%)

Quantity:

Box of 30 tests

Ideal for Drug Screening Programmes.

Test-it Urine Adulteration Test is an ideal screening test to determine if a urine sample has been diluted or manipulated. It is primarily indicated as an initial test prior to drug screening. A diluted and/or chemically manipulated urine sample can be identified through determination of specific parameters. Abnormal levels of physiological parameters and/or the presence of compounds not normally found in urine can be used to identify manipulated or adulterated urine.

The following parameters are available:
Specific gravity
Creatinine
pH
Nitrites
Glutaraldehyde
Pyridinium Chlorochromate
Oxidants

SPORTstix™

Price: R 175.00 (Excluding VAT at 14%)

Quantity: 1

Box of 30 tests

A performance optimising tool for athletes

Proteinuria, haematuria, ketosis and dehydration are common during exercise. A simple non-invasive urine dipstick test (SPORTstix) is a highly effective tool in monitoring performance parameters in athletes and individuals involved in exercise. It aims to help the individual to maintain an optimal physiological condition through monitoring the appearance of protein, blood and ketones in the urine. It is an invaluable tool in ensuring proper re-hydration after exercise.

LIPOstix™ - A metabolic marker for tracking weight loss

Price: R 150.00 (Excluding VAT at 14%)

Quantity: 1

Box of 30 tests

A metabolic marker for tracking weight loss:

Now, a newly developed advanced 4th generation urine dipstick test (LIPOstix) can be employed as a very accurate marker of fat metabolism (burning fat) and hydration. This product, which incorporates molecular principles for the first time, detects the major ketone bodies b-hydroxybuterate and acetoacetic acid in urine, and can thus be used as a measuring tool for adherence to low-carbohydrate diet, or to verify the efficacy of an exercise programme in conjunction with diet. At the same time, it is an invaluable tool helping the individual to monitor and maintain optimal hydration through measuring the specific gravity of the urine, an essential component of any serious weight loss programme.

Test-It Urinalysis

Price: R 130.00 (Excluding VAT at 14%)

Quantity:

Box of 30 tests

Ideal for Primary Screening

Test-it urine strips are ideally suited for rapid and accurate screening of urine to detect abnormalities in the urine that cover diseases of the kidneys, urogenital tract, carbohydrate metabolism disorders (i.e. diabetes mellitus), liver diseases and haemolytic disorders. This enables the primary health care worker to identify abnormalities in the urine at an early stage, enabling treatment to start early in order to prevent or delay serious complications.

RapidDiscovery cc offers a variety of high quality low priced rapid diagnostic tests and supporting devices for point of care and monitoring human health, delivering highly accurate results just in minutes.

Quality assured diagnostics are important for disease management in humans; they provide a basis for appropriate treatments of patients, for monitoring diseases and for the enhancement of disease-surveillance capacity.

The past decade has brought about impressive advances in surface and materials science and engineering, as well as in the development of new microelectronic components. These tools hold the promise of miniaturizing diagnostic devices, which could dramatically reduce costs and increase throughput and sensitivity of a wide range of diagnostic tests for human health applications. Recent biotechnological developments, including micro- and nano-technologies, have led to the proliferation of new, rapid diagnostic tests, based on microfluidic, microarray, electronic and photo-electronic, integrated on-chip and nanotechnology together with analytical systems, which enable the development of point-of-care analysers.

Our LifeAssay range of human diagnostic products provide individuals and doctors with accurate and cost-effective diagnostic information at the point-of-care. We sell our products throughout southern Africa.
