| Description | This is an urine testing kit, designed for urinalysis. The set includes a wooden testing stand, six glass testing tubes, a glass stirring rod, a glass balancing rod, two cork-stoppered smaller tubes, a larger glass tube with a green "Pyrex Made in England" stamp, a black India rubber pipette, and an urinometer with solid mercury at its tip.
The urinometer features a paper label with a scale from 60 to 1000, marked in black ink with "Urinometer Temp 60°F Made in England". The mercury is now solidified at the tip.
The glass balancing rod, which appears as a double-pointed cylindrical rod, is used to ensure an even liquid level when testing urine samples. The glass stirring rod is included to help mix the sample for accurate readings.
The wooden stand is designed with three shelves to securely accommodate the testing set. The bottom shelf features slots to hold the six glass testing tubes on one side, while the opposite side has slots to accommodate six wooden sticks. The middle shelf contains six fenestrations for the test tubes and smaller slots to hold the tips of the tubes from the level above, ensuring stability. The top shelf serves as the storage area for the stoppered tubes, urinometer, pipette, and the Pyrex test tube, keeping all components organised and easily accessible.
This urine testing kit was designed for precise urinalysis, offering a structured and systematic approach to measuring urine density, chemical properties, and other diagnostic factors. The presence of Pyrex glass components suggests heat resistance and durability, allowing for chemical heating or boiling in certain tests. |
