The Micro-albumin dipstick is a lateral flow, one-step immunoassay for the qualitative detection of low concentrations of albumin at a cut-off of 20 μg/mL urine. This product is used to obtain a visual, qualitative result and is intended for professional use, only. The assay was developed for the first screening of urine samples and provides a preliminary analytical result. A positive result indicates elevated levels of albumin above the cut-off but does not correct for alterations in the urine concentration. Positive results should therefore be confirmed by a more specific quantitative method. Clinical consideration and professional judgment should be applied to any Micro-albumin test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are indicated.
