Protein count

Matt: I can't find a way to make this legible, but this is the meter

from the multi-test dip. It's made by Roche Diagnostics (cat. no 418

003), Chemistrip 10UA REagent Strips for Urinalysis for in Vitro

Diagnostic Use. This only part of the guide; it actually has 11 tests

on each strip. The top set of yellow-to-green swatches is the protein

test. Text to the left of the row of blocks is "protein/30-60 sec."

Beneath the blocks, left to right, appears "neg", "trace", "+/30",

"++/100", "+++/500mg/dL." A nurse just told us there is no "4-plus", so

the "3-plus" we heard this morning is a symptom of severe

pre-eclampsia. As I mentioned, though, Dr Hammond wasn't particularly

worried.

 

When I get home, I'll put some of her used strips on the flatbed canner

and post those images.
