Cybow Urinalysis Reagent Test Strips 11 Parameter 100 Count

- you read all but one of the results at the same time,- they were inexpensive when I ordered them,- they claim to be good for two years from manufacture date.In the past I've used urinalysis strips which required different spots to be read at different times. These ones are easier because you read all the tests at one moment, at "exactly 60 seconds". [Except for leukocytes which they say to read at 90-120 seconds.]Also, these strips are just as cheap as several others which test for fewer items. The strips I used to use, from Bayer, which looked exactly the same, cost a whole bunch more.We have found them useful to check for things like incipient UTIs, and to check metabolism status during dieting. Also it helps feed my partner's general health paranoia :) Note, however, if you are only interested in checking for UTIs, you might prefer these simpler  Urinary Tract Infection Test Strips  instead.[I purchased in June 2015, and the date codes on the bottle seem to indicate manufacturer date of March 2015, and expiration date of March 2017.]

Love this product and all that it tests. Very simple to use and read. Can't speak highly enough about the customer service from this particular company. I actually ordered the product about eight months ago and was so busy I set the box under the cabinet in the bathroom. When I finally got around to using the test strips I realized I should not have stored in a damp area. I wrote to the company and asked how to determine if the strips were still good and they literally shipped a new box to me at no charge -- just to be certain they would still be effective in reading my results. I've ordered a lot of different products from Amazon over the years and I will say without a doubt this company has excellent customer service. They didn't even charge me to ship a new box. Amazing! Again, love this product and love this company. Would most certainly order again.

I bought these because an ultrasound showed that my right kidney is mildly enlarged and I have been having some mild back pain and mild groin discomfort. I have not been back to the doctor yet. My first test was yesterday. Now I drink A LOT of water but my urine was brown. All of the colors were abnormal except for glucose and vitamin C; yes, I was freaked. Today I tested again and my urine was clear and ALL the results were normal. So... I don't know what to think??? I plan to test with this product everyday and go back to the doctor for some definitive tests. If you are symptomatic in any way, I would not rely on this test alone but I still think it's well worth the $$$. It's real easy to use. I tried to take a picture of the results in order to read it at 60 seconds more easily, but what worked better for me was placing the test strip directly adjacent to the control colors so that my strip and the control panel were bordering each other. It's way easier to tell if your colors are off this way!

WARNING!! I bought these to monitor urine glucose for a newly diagnosed diabetic dog in order to adjust his insulin dosage as needed. The strips consistently read 250mg/dl. The dog's symptoms were not improving though. I bought Bayer strips and they consistently read >2000mg/dl. I took the dog to the vet and the doctor said the 2000mg/dl was correct and to trash the Cybow brand. At this same visit, the dog's blood glucose was 493mg/dl, so the insulin dosage was increased. Cybow brand can not be trusted to help monitor life threatening conditions!

I will upgrade my review but for now I am giving three stars but if it does the same tomorrow I will downgrade it to a one star or up it to five if my readings are correct.I followed the directions exactly. My only interest is Glucose. My result was negative for Glucose (strip remained Blue) everything else pretty much changed color. Immediately I did Blood Glucose by pricking my finger and it was 175. That is not normal. So either my Glucometer is incorrect or the test strip is?????Stay Tuned!!!!Okay I have used Three Test Strips and did two blood glucose test. Both Blood Tests Revealed High Glucose Levels (175 and 174) taken 12 hours apart. All three test strips showed Neg for Glucose. Two were taken minutes before Blood Glucose.Bottom Line. If your Dog or Cat has diabetes or you do and think that you can save them or yourself the stress of pricking your finger or their Lip or pads. This is not the solution unless you want false readings.My Bottle has these dates and Lot #: Lot # 151125 and 2017.09 and 2015.09

In my experience using these strips it seems that they are very accurate for detecting even microscopic levels of red blood cells in urine. In fact, I noticed one day I showed positive for blood in my urine, though not visible, and I wound up with a UTI just a few days later.However, I am not as confident that they are accurate when measuring protein levels. When I use them they seem to under-count the protein compared to the urinalysis performed by my doctor's lab. I compared them to the Siemens dipsticks and a Seimens product appears to be much more accurate measuring protein levels. Unfortunately, I don;t think the Siemens dipstick are available anymore. I can't speak for the other tests the Cybow sticks perform because I am always negative with these dipsticks and with the urinalysis performed by the lab.I would still recommend this product.
