Leukocytes
White Blood Cells produced by the body to help fight infection and found in a sample couple indicate a UTI or Kidney Infection.
Nitrites
Bacteria that cause urinary tract infections (UTIs) convert nitrates into nitrites. Positive results for nitrites could indicate a UTI.
Urobilinogen
A by-product of the breakdown of Bilirubin. Smaller levels are normal, but larger levels could indicate liver disease.
Protein
High levels of protein in a urine sample can indicate possible kidney disease or the need for further investigation.
pH
Checks the acidity or alkalinity of urine.
Blood
A serious UTI/Cystitis can cause blood in urine as well as other issues such as kidney stones or bladder/kidney cancer.
Specific Gravity (S.G.)
Higher specific gravity could be signs of a UTI, diabetes or even dehydration. Other issues could be a kidney infection, kidney failure or heart failure.
Ketone
Ketones are produced when the body is not able to extract energy from Glucose and therefore starts to burn off body fat. A high level of ketones could simply be down to dieting, not eating for prolonged periods of time (12-18 hours), or something more serious such as diabetes.
Bilirubin
A by-product of the breakdown of red blood cells. These cells should not be present in the urine and these could indicate liver disease.
Glucose
Not usually found in urine as the kidneys are able to process it and release it back into the body. Glucose in urine can indicate undiagnosed diabetes.
