BK150

Handheld device for urinalysis

The BK150 reads 14-parameter urine test strips photometrically. This replaces comparing colours by eye, and the results are reproducible. Dip the test strip, insert it, press the button: after 60 seconds the result is on the display and comes out of the built-in printer.

Parameters & applications

semi-quantitative

Clinical question	Parameters	Benefit in practice
Urinary tract infection	LEU · NIT · BLO	Dysuria, pollakiuria, fever of unknown origin. Leucocytes and nitrite together make a bacterial infection likely.
Haematuria	BLO · PRO	Indication of stones, glomerular disease or tumour; follow-up work-up
Nephropathy screening	mALB · CRE · PRO	Albumin/creatinine ratio from spot urine, annually in diabetes and hypertension
Diabetes, ketosis	GLU · KET	Glucosuria, suspected ketoacidosis, fasting or low-carb diet, SGLT2 inhibitors
Liver, bile ducts, haemolysis	BIL · URO	Jaundice work-up: bilirubin in cholestasis, urobilinogen in haemolysis or liver damage
Kidney stones, hydration	CA · pH · SG	Hypercalciuria, urine pH in uric acid or infection stones, concentrating ability, dehydration
Plausibility check	ASC	Ascorbic acid can cause false-negative glucose, blood and nitrite results. The value indicates possible interference.

Also suitable for antenatal care and sports medicine: protein, glucose and ketones are part of every Austrian Mother-Child Pass (Mutter-Kind-Pass) examination. The result, with printout, is available in one minute.
