  • Publication number: 20220405973
    Abstract: A method for conducting a urinalysis is provided. The method includes receiving an image of a urine strip having a plurality of reacting areas configured to react with a predetermined urine parameter, and a plurality of reference regions each having a designated color; extracting, from each reference region, reference values representative of a detected color in the reference region; extracting, from each reacting area, color values representative of a detected color of the reacting area; conducting a regression analysis by determining least-squares of the reference values in accordance with prestored set of values corresponding to expected colors of each reference region; determining a color correction model by calculating root polynomial expansion of the least-squares; applying the color correction model on the color values by calculating root polynomial expansion of the color values to obtain normalized values; and determine level of the urine parameters in accordance with normalized values.

  • Publication number: 20220163514
    Abstract: A system for conducting urinalysis of urine is provided. The system includes a housing mountable on a urination device defining urination area; a dispenser mounted in the housing and being configured for holding a plurality of urine test strips (hereinafter “UTS”). Each one of the UTS includes at least one reacting area configured for a chemical reaction with a substance in the urine. The system further includes a detector configured for detecting at least one property of the reacting area and a shifting mechanism configured for extracting one UTS from the dispenser and moving the UTS to a urination position in which the UTS is disposed above the urination area, such that the reacting area is disposed along a urine path.
