Can you just pee on the test strip, or do you have to use a cup to collect the urine like the instructions say?

You do have to use a cup. A little annoying but the stick is too smal to be able to pee on directly.

You do not just pee on the strip, it comes with a small collection cup. You wouldn't want to pee on the stick, they are only about 2mm wide and 3 inches long, you would just end up peeing all over your hand. Also, there is a "MAX" line you don't want to get any urine past when testing. Good Luck, I hope this helps!

I would definitely use a cup. I use those bathroom water cups you can buy like 200 of for a few dollars. The test strip is quite small, only has a small area that should be immersed for 3 seconds, and has another area which is not supposed to become wet.

You could peel on it BUT they are very thin and the max line is low. I found dipping easier and less likely to 1) miss the test area or 2) person all over it. I recommend a cup. I had ax specimen cup from work I just rinsed and reused each time at home. Work we had them in the bathroom. (A doctor's office).

I think it can affect the validity of the test if you get pee past the test line, so it is better to dip. I used little Dixie cups

No holder needed. Best is to pee in a clean plastic cup & dip test strip as directed. Good luck!!!

The urine is absorbed by the pad. We just use feminine napkins because they are cheaper. You just change them immediately and it never really touches them. It almost always gets the diaper wet also so you pretty much need two. They wear one while you wash the other.

Mine had one test strip only. If that is the way it's supposed to come, you'll need to buy additional test strips with your kit.

No it doesn't need test strips. You compare the color of the water to a color chart provided.

No strips needed. It uses a built-in sensor which measures K-levels form your saliva.Only thing you might need is the calibrating solution in case it gets over.

If your child doesn't sit back far enough to aim everything into the toilet, he/she can get urine underneath the seat. I simply check and wipe it every time.

No cup is necessary. It is a test strip intended to be held in the urine stream. It is not intended to be dipped into a cup. According to the directions, it is only to be held in the stream for 1 to 2 seconds, so dipping it in a cup would not give you a correct reading. We use this because we live in a remote area of Montana and my 90-year-old mother lived with us and was somewhat of a hypochondriac thinking we needed to take her to the Dr. for tests far more often than needed. Her Dr. took these tests as quite accurate and if it gave a negative told us not to bring her town. It saved us a lot of false alarms. I hope this helps.

I would not use them for urine testing as they are to small. Most urine tests are done via dip sticks which are longer then cup depth. Also urine cups are more of 6 ounce size and not sterile. for urine cultures that require testing for bacteria , you need sterile cup with lid. They work great for measuring small quantity or samples of juice etc. they are after all medicine cups

The Dip Drug test is very easy to use. 1. Remove from pouch 2. Pull off cap at one end of the kit and you will have 5 or 6 will strips showing 3. place the strips in the fresh urine to atleast the level of the wavy lines, but not above the arrow on the test card for atleast 15 seconds (I do 30 seconds) 4. Place the test on a Flat surface (I put mine on aluminum foil on the counter) and you will start seeing results immediately 5. HOW TO READ THE RESULTS------ there are two lines on each stick, so if you have a LINE in the C and the T that means it tested Negative for that drug. If you have a line for the C and no line for the T --- the subject tested positive for doing drugs If you have just a T-- it means the test has failed. There is a cheat sheet on the card --- this is the easiest test to use. Best time is in the morning and to make sure the specimen is what it is and not altered or changed. Good luck. Dennis

You just dip it in beneath the water and take it right out. Move the meter out of direct sun light while it is testing the strip.

At the bottom near the left (just a little off center) is where the blood test strip protrudes. From that vantage point, it can be used anywhere there is blood for the test strip to come in contact with.

Yes, you need to put some kind of bedding or towels down to soak up the urine. Paper bedding and shavings can be a pain to remove from the corners and edges of the canvas, so I find towels and fleece to work the best.

I honestly never waited before dipping. I did wait about five minutes before checking it though. One person on a babycenter post had said that she tried it immediately and then when it was room temp, and there was no difference in the results. I did follow the other directions closely. I imagine that you could pour a little urine in a more shallow cup and it would cool very quickly if you wanted to be extra safe.

It is not suppose to hold the urine. It is suppose to be an extension (as I man naturally has) so you can stand and pee like they do. But don't waste your money, I tried it in the shower (just in case) with cloths on as if I were traveling. It just wet my pants.
