Mission 10U Urinalysis Reagent Strips are multi-parameter urine test strips designed for broad routine urine chemistry screening using a single urine specimen.
Each Mission 10U strip contains 10 reagent areas for screening:
This makes Mission 10U suitable when broader urinalysis is required instead of testing only one or two selected parameters.
Pack size: 100 urine reagent strips per canister.
| Parameter | Abbreviation | What the Reagent Area Screens |
|---|---|---|
| Leukocytes | LEU | White blood cell activity in urine |
| Nitrite | NIT | Nitrite produced by certain nitrate-reducing bacteria |
| Urobilinogen | URO | Urobilinogen present in urine |
| Protein | PRO | Protein, primarily albumin, in urine |
| pH | pH | Relative acidity or alkalinity of urine |
| Blood | BLO | Blood-related reactions in urine |
| Specific Gravity | SG | Relative concentration of the urine specimen |
| Ketones | KET | Ketone bodies detected by the reagent system |
| Bilirubin | BIL | Bilirubin in urine |
| Glucose | GLU | Glucose present in urine |
A 10-parameter urine reagent strip provides a broad biochemical screening profile from a single urine specimen.
It may form part of routine urinalysis where several urine chemistry parameters need to be assessed together rather than individually.
Multi-parameter urinalysis may provide screening information relevant to areas including:
Urine reagent strips are screening tools and should not be treated as standalone diagnostic tests for a disease.
Leukocytes and nitrite are commonly included together in urine reagent strips because they can provide useful information during urinary tract screening.
A positive leukocyte or nitrite result does not independently confirm a urinary tract infection. Symptoms, specimen quality and, where appropriate, further laboratory testing should also be considered.
The protein reagent area is primarily designed to detect albumin in urine.
Protein may appear temporarily or persistently for several different reasons. Repeated or unexpected protein findings require appropriate clinical interpretation rather than diagnosis from the strip alone.
The glucose reagent area screens for glucose excreted into urine, while the ketone pad screens for urinary ketones.
Urine glucose testing is different from direct blood glucose measurement and should not replace blood glucose testing or HbA1c when these are clinically required.
Ketones may occur during fasting, carbohydrate restriction, illness, vomiting, prolonged exercise or inadequate insulin availability. Their significance depends on the overall clinical situation.
The blood reagent pad screens for blood-related reactions in the urine specimen.
Unexpected positive findings can have multiple possible causes and should be interpreted together with clinical history and additional testing where necessary.
Urine pH indicates whether a urine sample is relatively acidic or alkaline.
Specific gravity provides an indication of urine concentration and forms part of broader urinalysis assessment.
Bilirubin and urobilinogen are biochemical parameters included in multi-parameter urinalysis. Unexpected findings may require appropriate clinical evaluation and should not be interpreted independently as a specific liver diagnosis.
| Mission Strip | Parameters | Best Suited For |
|---|---|---|
| Mission 1G | Glucose | Focused urine glucose screening |
| Mission 2GK | Glucose + Ketones | Focused GLU + KET screening |
| Mission 2GP | Glucose + Protein | Focused GLU + PRO screening |
| Mission 10U | 10 parameters | Broader routine urinalysis |
Choose Mission 10U when:
If your testing requirement is limited to glucose and ketones, you may not need a full 10-parameter strip.

Always follow the current Instructions for Use supplied with your product. Reading times vary between reagent parameters.
The existing Mission product guidance specifies a brief immersion of approximately 1–2 seconds, followed by removal of excess urine, but the pack insert supplied with the actual product should always take priority.
Mission reagent strips may be read visually by comparing the developed reagent pads against the colour chart supplied with the product.
Each reagent area has its own colour scale and reading time. Accurate timing is important because interpreting a reagent pad too early or too late can affect the result.
ACON states that Mission urine reagent strips are designed for visual and compatible analyzer reading.
However, analyzer compatibility depends on the exact reagent-strip configuration and analyzer model.
Do not assume that every Mission strip configuration is compatible with every Mission analyzer. Confirm compatibility before purchasing strips for automated reading.
Microsidd's Urine Chemistry range also includes professional urine chemistry analyzers for laboratories processing larger numbers of samples.

Correct storage is important because urine reagent-strip test pads are sensitive to environmental exposure.
ACON currently states a shelf life of 24 months for unopened Mission urine reagent-strip canisters and 3 months after the canister is opened. Always follow the expiry date and storage instructions printed on the actual product supplied.
Mission 10U may be appropriate for urine chemistry testing in settings such as:
Mission 10U is part of Microsidd's growing Urine Chemistry range, which includes focused glucose, protein and ketone reagent strips as well as complete multi-parameter urinalysis products and urine analyzers.

Mission 10U tests 10 urine chemistry parameters: leukocytes, nitrite, urobilinogen, protein, pH, blood, specific gravity, ketones, bilirubin and glucose.
The product supplied by Microsidd contains 100 reagent strips per canister.
It provides a broad 10-parameter urine chemistry screening panel. However, a complete clinical urinalysis may also include physical examination, microscopy and other laboratory investigations when clinically required.
The strip includes leukocyte and nitrite reagent areas commonly used during urinary tract screening. These findings do not independently confirm a UTI.
Yes. Glucose (GLU) is one of the ten reagent parameters.
Yes. Ketones (KET) are included.
Yes. Protein (PRO) is included.
It contains a blood reagent area designed to screen for blood-related reactions in urine. An unexpected positive result should be interpreted clinically and investigated where appropriate.
No. Urine glucose and ketone findings do not independently diagnose diabetes and should not replace appropriate blood glucose, HbA1c or clinical assessment.
No. Parameters such as protein, blood and specific gravity can provide screening information, but a urine reagent strip alone cannot diagnose kidney disease.
Yes. Mission urine reagent strips support visual reading against the supplied colour chart.
Mission reagent strips may support analyzer reading, but exact strip/analyzer compatibility must be confirmed before use.
ACON currently states up to 3 months after opening for Mission urine reagent-strip canisters when properly stored. Always follow the actual pack label and IFU supplied with your batch.
No. Each urine reagent strip is intended for single use only.
Mission 10U urine reagent strips are intended as screening and monitoring aids. Results should not be interpreted as a standalone medical diagnosis.
Abnormal or unexpected findings may result from multiple clinical, physiological, specimen-related or medication-related factors.
Persistent or clinically significant abnormalities should be interpreted by an appropriately qualified healthcare professional and confirmed with additional laboratory investigations when necessary.
Do not begin, stop or modify medicines, insulin, dietary treatment or other medical care solely on the basis of a urine reagent-strip result.
Always follow the Instructions for Use supplied with the product.
This diagnostic consumable is non-returnable and non-exchangeable.
Please verify the brand, test parameters, pack size and analyzer compatibility where applicable before placing your order.
Genuine cases involving an incorrect product received are handled separately according to Microsidd.com's applicable policies and applicable law.
