Variation In Health And Lllness Disease Differences

Variation In Health And Illness Disease Differences...

The quantity is decreased in health when the amount of fluid taken is limited, or when sweating is heavy as the result of exercise or excessive clothing and in hot weather. When the quantity is much diminished the colour becomes deeper, the specific gravity higher, and there may be a deposit of rates on cooling.

The quantity is increased in opposite conditions, as when sweating is decreased as in cool weather, in conditions of fear and nervousness, when little exercise is taken, and when the fluid intake is increased. In these circumstances the colour is paler and the specific gravity is lower.

Strip tests
Wherever possible the impregnated reagent areas have been grouped together to form a complete test system on one plastic strip. The technique for most of the strip tests is identical:
I. Dip the strip into fresh, well-mixed, un centrifuged urine, so
that all the reagent areas are covered. Remove immediately.
2.    Tap the edge of the strip against the side of the urine container to remove excess urine.
3.    Compare the test areas closely with the corresponding colour charts on the bottle, at the stated times. Hold the strip close to the colour blocks and match quickly.

The reading time interval for each test is given on the package leaflet and on the bottle label for each product.
