Frequently asked questions

Does the control offer comprehensive analyte coverage?

Yes, the Quantimetrix Dipper Urine Dipstick Control provides comprehensive analyte coverage designed to monitor both visual and instrument readings accurately.

This control solution furnishes quantitative values for a wide range of markers, including:

  • All standard dipstick analytes
  • Key specialized markers: microalbumin and creatinine

Furthermore, the control provides the qualitative results necessary for validating hCG early pregnancy detection test methods. This comprehensive profile ensures reliable quality assurance across most urinalysis reagent strips, and it is also suitable for confirmatory testing and refractometry applications.

Is qualitative hCG testing supported?

Yes, the Quantimetrix Dipper Urine Dipstick Control is specifically engineered to provide qualitative results for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG).

This functionality is essential for validating and confirming the performance of early pregnancy detection test methods.

In addition to the qualitative hCG results, this control solution offers comprehensive quantitative values for:

  • All standard urinalysis dipstick analytes
  • Specialized measurements for microalbumin and creatinine
Does the control solution cover microalbumin and creatinine?

Yes, the Quantimetrix Dipper Urine Dipstick Control provides comprehensive analyte coverage beyond standard dipstick parameters, ensuring robust quality assurance.

It specifically includes:

  • Quantitative values for all standard dipstick analytes.
  • Quantitative values for specialized markers, including microalbumin and creatinine.
  • Qualitative results necessary for hCG early pregnancy detection test methods.
Is the control suitable for refractometry and confirmatory tests?

Yes, the Quantimetrix Dipper Urine Dipstick Control offers dual functionality and is specifically engineered for use beyond standard dipstick monitoring.

It is officially suitable for:

  • Confirmatory Tests: Used to perform necessary external confirmatory testing procedures.
  • Refractometry Applications: Suitable for applications such as refractometry (measuring specific gravity).

This versatility makes the Dipper Control a comprehensive quality assurance solution for various clinical settings.

Does the control solution mimic patient sample testing?

Yes, the Quantimetrix Dipper Urine Dipstick Control is specifically engineered to accurately mimic the standard clinical procedure for testing patient samples. The control solution is ideal for quality control and validation because:

  • Immersion Testing: Users monitor performance by dipping the urinalysis dipstick directly into the control solution, replicating the usual patient sample testing method.
  • Comprehensive Monitoring: This ensures consistent performance monitoring for both visual assessments and instrument readings of the reagent strips.
  • Compliance: Using this method provides essential validation required for maintaining accuracy and compliance in clinical urinalysis testing.
Is this ideal for Point-of-Care Testing (POCT)?

Yes, the Quantimetrix Dipper Urine Dipstick Control is highly recommended for Point-of-Care Testing (POCT) environments and clinical laboratories.

This control is specifically designed to monitor both visual and instrument readings of urinalysis dipsticks, ensuring accurate and reliable results in rapid testing settings.

Key features that make it ideal for POCT use include:

  • Specific Configurations: Variants, such as the POCT Urinalysis Dipstick Control (Level 1 & 2, 20x1.5mL), are available to suit the needs of point-of-care testing facilities.
  • Comprehensive Monitoring: It includes quantitative values for all standard dipstick analytes, plus important markers like microalbumin and creatinine.
  • Realistic Procedure: The control is applied by immersing the dipstick, accurately mimicking the patient sample testing procedure.
  • Versatile Compatibility: It is compatible with most urinalysis reagent strips, making it easy to integrate into existing POCT protocols.
Does the control offer comprehensive analyte coverage?

Yes, the Quantimetrix Dipper Urine Dipstick Control is designed for comprehensive quality assurance, covering a wide range of measurements to monitor both visual and instrument readings.

It includes:

  • All Standard Dipstick Analytes: Provides quantitative values for every typical marker found on urinalysis reagent strips.
  • Specialized Analytes: Offers specific quantitative values for microalbumin and creatinine.
  • hCG Testing: Includes qualitative results for early pregnancy detection test methods.

This control is highly versatile, compatible with most commercially available urinalysis reagent strips, and suitable for use in confirmatory tests and refractometry. It facilitates performance monitoring by requiring direct immersion of the dipstick, accurately simulating patient sample testing procedures.

What control levels and sizes are available?

The Quantimetrix Dipper Urine Dipstick Control is offered in three distinct configurations, combining different control levels and volumes to suit standard laboratory use and Point-of-Care Testing (POCT) needs. These controls are designed for accurate monitoring across various testing environments.

Available configurations include:

  • POCT Urinalysis Dipstick Control (Level 1 & 2): Packaged in 20 vials of 1.5 mL each. This dual-level option is ideal for decentralized testing settings.
  • Standard Urinalysis Dipstick Control (6 x 15 mL): This configuration is available in two level options:
    • Level 1 and 2 Combined: Includes six 15 mL vials for comprehensive quality control across normal and abnormal reference ranges.
    • Level 2 Only: Includes six 15 mL vials for targeted quality monitoring focusing solely on the abnormal range.
Does the control monitor both visual and instrument readings?

Yes, the Quantimetrix Dipper Urine Dipstick Control is specifically designed to monitor both visual and instrument readings of urinalysis dipsticks, ensuring comprehensive performance assessment.

Is the control suitable for confirmatory testing?

Yes, the Quantimetrix Dipper Urine Dipstick Control is designed for dual functionality, providing broad utility for quality control.
