This at-home screening kit uses a urine sample to check leukocytes and nitrites. Nitrites can reflect some bacteria; leukocytes indicate white blood cells. Not every UTI produces both markers, and a urine culture or clinical assessment may be needed. The result is intended to help you decide whether further clinical advice is needed; it is not a diagnosis on its own.

For people with burning when urinating, urgency or frequent urination who want to check for signs of a UTI. It is for people with burning on urination, urgency, frequency, lower abdominal discomfort or cloudy urine who want an indication of UTI. Symptoms in pregnancy, children or men need clinician assessment. A clinician can advise if your symptoms are persistent, severe or outside the purpose of this home screen.

The manufacturer lists Test strip (x3), and Instructions. Check the actual pack contents and expiry date before starting. You will need a timer and may need other materials as stated in the enclosed leaflet; components and packaging should be checked against that leaflet.

Read the enclosed instructions before opening the device. Wash the genital area and collect a fresh urine sample, or hold the strip in the urine stream as the leaflet directs. Wet both pads for the specified brief contact time, remove excess urine and lay the strip pads-up. Match the nitrite pad to its colour chart at 1 minute and the leukocyte pad at 2 minutes; do not interpret later colour changes. Use only the sample type and amounts specified for this particular kit, keep the work area clean and do not reuse any single-use component. The step-by-step product tab summarises the process.

Newfoundland states results in about 2 minutes. Start timing when the sample is applied or the device is activated, as the leaflet directs. Read only in the stated window: interpreting too soon or after the cut-off may give a misleading result. Check the control or validity guide first.

The strip checks nitrites and leukocytes. The manufacturer’s instruction sheet says compare nitrites with the colour chart at 1 minute and leukocytes at 2 minutes. A positive pad can support a UTI suspicion, but a negative strip cannot exclude one. Seek urgent advice for fever, pain in the back below the ribs, pregnancy, blood in urine or worsening symptoms. Follow the leaflet’s exact result illustration, as positive and negative patterns are not the same for every self-test.

The product is advertised as clinically tested for its intended use. This does not mean every individual result is certain: sample collection, timing, storage, expiry and how early a condition is tested can all affect performance. Follow the enclosed instructions and seek professional assessment when symptoms or risk remain.

A negative home result does not rule out every cause of your symptoms or concern. If the kit’s required control is absent, the colour comparison is unclear or the test was read outside its window, do not rely on it: repeat with a new kit as directed. Ask a clinician about ongoing symptoms or an unexpected result.

Nitrites may be produced by some bacteria and leukocytes are white blood cells that can accompany inflammation or infection. Neither marker alone establishes the cause of symptoms. Read each pad against its own colour chart at the correct time, and ask a clinician about persistent symptoms.

Yes. Not every infecting bacterium produces nitrites, and timing or urine concentration can affect the pads. A negative result does not override symptoms. Seek advice for persistent burning, urgency or frequency, and urgent help for fever, flank pain, pregnancy or feeling unwell.
