Detection of Canine Microalbuminuria Using Semiquantitative Test Strips Designed for Use with Human Urine

Abstract

These results suggest that the Clinitek strips lack sufficient concordance with results obtained by ELISA to be a reliable screening for test microalbuminuria in the dog. A reliable semiquantitative point-of-care test for canine urine albumin concentrations below those detected by standard urine dipsticks is still needed.
