Teco Diagnostics urine reagent strips tests for Ketone and Glucose.
Ketone (Acetoacetic Acid) is a substance that can be found in trace amounts in urine. However, when large amounts of ketone are found in your urine it is an indication of a serious problem, especially for people with diabetes.
Ketone is produced when you burn too much fat and carbohydrates. This situation is more likely to be found in people with Type I Diabetes (insulin dependent). When you produce a lot of ketones, it is a good indication that your diabetes may be out of control. This complication is called Ketoacidosis and can lead to a coma. The Urine Test for Ketone can provide a warning signal for you to contact a doctor or health care provider before your diabetes gets out of control. Your doctor or health care provider can then recommend the necessary actions for you to get better.
