A Urine Routine Test analyzes key substances like glucose, proteins, ketones, bilirubin, and cells to detect infections, kidney disorders, diabetes, and other health issues.
The Urine Reducing Substances Test is a diagnostic test used to detect the presence of certain reducing sugars in urine, primarily helpful for evaluating potential metabolic disorders or digestive issues. This test can identify sugars such as glucose, galactose, lactose, or fructose, which may indicate conditions like diabetes, galactosemia, or malabsorption syndromes.
Detecting reducing sugars in urine is crucial as it helps diagnose hereditary metabolic disorders in infants, digestive abnormalities, or conditions like diabetes in adults. High levels of reducing substances in urine may signal the body’s inability to properly break down and absorb sugars, often necessitating further medical evaluation and intervention.
This test is generally recommended for
Infants showing symptoms of feeding intolerance, failure to thrive, or other metabolic concerns.
Individuals suspected of having digestive issues or unexplained abdominal symptoms.
People diagnosed with diabetes or metabolic syndrome to check for abnormal sugar levels.
