The commercially available dipstick test (Clinitek Atlas®PRO™12 Reagent Pak) for the semi-quantitative urine protein-to-creatinine (P/C) ratio. In addition to a traditional dipstick testing pad for color, pH, protein, glucose, ketone, bilirubin, urobilinogen, nitrite, blood and leukocyte esterase, the novel dipstick test incorporated a relatively low-protein pad (arrow) and creatinine pad (arrowhead) for the automated calculation of semi-quantitative urine P/C ratio. a A urine strip with normal P/C ratio (less than 150 mg protein/g creatinine), b a urine strip with abnormal P/C ratio (within the range of 150–299.9 mg protein/g creatinine) and c a urine strip with abnormal P/C ratio (within the range of 300–499.9 mg protein/g creatinine)
