Mission 1G Urinalysis Reagent Strips are single-parameter urine test strips designed specifically for the screening of glucose (GLU) in urine.
They provide a focused option when urinary glucose is the only parameter required and a two-parameter or complete multi-parameter urinalysis strip is unnecessary.
Pack size: 100 urine reagent strips per canister.
| Parameter | Abbreviation | What It Screens |
|---|---|---|
| Glucose | GLU | Presence or concentration range of glucose in urine |
Mission 1G is therefore a 1-parameter urine chemistry strip intended for focused urinary glucose screening.
Under normal circumstances, very little glucose is usually present in urine because the kidneys reabsorb most filtered glucose back into the bloodstream.
Urinary glucose may appear when blood glucose rises above the kidney's ability to reabsorb it, although glucose in urine can also occur for other reasons.
A urine glucose result should therefore not be interpreted by itself as a diagnosis of diabetes.
Urine glucose testing and blood glucose testing measure different things.
| Urine Glucose Strip | Blood Glucose Meter |
|---|---|
| Detects glucose excreted into urine | Measures glucose concentration in a blood sample |
| Provides indirect screening information | Provides a direct blood glucose measurement |
| Influenced by renal glucose threshold and urine timing | Reflects blood glucose at the time of testing |
| Should not replace clinically required blood testing | Commonly used for direct glucose monitoring |
Mission 1G should not be used as a substitute for blood glucose testing or HbA1c when those investigations are clinically required.
Mission 1G may be suitable for urinary glucose screening in settings such as:
| Mission Strip | Parameters | Best Suited For |
|---|---|---|
| Mission 1G | Glucose | Focused urine glucose screening |
| Mission 2GP | Glucose + Protein | Focused GLU + PRO screening |
| Mission 2GK | Glucose + Ketones | Focused GLU + KET screening |
| Mission 10U | 10 parameters | Broader routine urinalysis |
Choose Mission 1G when:
If you need to screen glucose and protein together, choose Mission 2GP instead.

If your requirement is glucose + ketone screening, choose Mission 2GK.

If you need broader screening for parameters such as protein, leukocytes, nitrite, blood, pH, specific gravity, ketones, bilirubin and urobilinogen in addition to glucose, choose a multi-parameter strip such as Mission 10U.

Always follow the Instructions for Use supplied with the actual product pack.
Mission 1G strips are designed for visual interpretation using the glucose colour chart supplied with the product.
The reagent pad changes colour depending on the glucose reaction. The developed pad should be compared with the corresponding reference colour at the specified reading time.
Reading too early or too late may affect interpretation.
No. Mission 1G is a urine reagent strip and can be read visually using its colour chart.
It should not be confused with blood glucose meter strips, which require a compatible electronic glucometer.
Correct storage is important because urine reagent pads are sensitive to moisture, heat and environmental exposure.
Always follow the specific storage temperature and opened-canister stability instructions printed on the actual Mission product supplied.
Mission 1G forms part of the wider Microsidd Urine Chemistry range, including focused glucose, protein and ketone strips as well as complete multi-parameter urinalysis products.

Mission 1G is a single-parameter urine reagent strip designed to screen glucose in urine.
The Microsidd product is sold as a 100-strip pack.
No. Mission 1G tests glucose only. For glucose + protein screening, choose Mission 2GP.
No. For glucose + ketone screening, use Mission 2GK.
No. Urine glucose testing does not independently diagnose diabetes. Diagnosis usually requires appropriate blood glucose, HbA1c and clinical evaluation.
No. Urine glucose screening and blood glucose measurement are different tests.
Yes. The product is designed specifically for urinary glucose screening.
No analyzer is required for visual testing. The strip can be interpreted using the supplied colour reference chart.
No. Each strip is intended for single use only.
Store the strips in their original tightly closed canister and protect them from moisture, excessive heat and direct sunlight. Follow the pack-specific storage instructions.
Mission 1G urine glucose strips are intended as screening and monitoring aids.
A positive or abnormal urine glucose result should not be interpreted as a standalone diagnosis of diabetes or another medical condition.
Urine glucose results can be affected by blood glucose levels, renal glucose threshold, timing of urine collection and other physiological or clinical factors.
Unexpected or persistent findings should be assessed appropriately and confirmed using additional laboratory or clinical investigations where necessary.
Do not start, stop or alter diabetes medicines, insulin, diet or other medical treatment solely on the basis of a urine glucose-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 parameter, pack size and intended application before ordering.
