SALIVA REAGENT STRIP FOR DETECTING CONCENTRATION OF PEPSIN OR PEPSINOGEN

摘要

A reagent strip determines a concentration of an analyte in a saliva sample. The reagent strip includes a sample receiving portion having a detector reagent thereon. The sample receiving portion includes at least one indicator constructed and arranged to indicate a specific concentration of the analyte in a saliva sample. The strip is constructed and arranged such that when the saliva sample is introduced onto the sample receiving portion, a chemical reaction occurs if the analyte is present in the saliva sample and the indicator will activate if a specific concentration of the analyte is present within the saliva sample so as to indicate the specific concentration. A kit of reagent strips is also disclosed.
