QDx Urine DS 4 MAU – Urine test strip with microalbumin
We are pleased to introduce the unique QDx Urine DS 4 MAU urine test strip. QDx Urine DS 4 MAU detects glucose, protein, ketones and microalbumin in urine at the same time, therefore enabling complete screening in diabetic nephropathy. The combined test strip including microalbumin gives benefits to common glucose-ketone strips and glucose-ketone-protein strips and could replace them in the market.
Microalbumin in urine is an early indicator of kidney damage in diabetes (diabetic nephropathy) and patients with high blood pressure. 15% of all dialyses due to irreversible kidney damage in diabetics could be avoided by early detection and therapy and many more could be delayed for years.Microalbuminuria is an indicator for increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, too. Increased albumin concentrations can be an early indicator for tissue damage due to atherosclerosis. Another application of microalbumin is the screening for pre-eclampsia (hypertension in pregnancy).
