Quantitative P-Hydroxybutyrate results During ketosis, P-Hydroxybutyrate (BHB) accounts for 78% of total ketones, while traditional nitroprusside urine tests detect only 22%, measuring only acetoacetate. Quantitative BHB testing provides an objective tool for monitoring ketosis and DKA treatment effectiveness. As DKA resolves, BHB decreases while acetoacetate rises. Urine ketone tests can be misleading, potentially leading to unnecessary prolonged treatment, increasing costs and hospital stays. The BHB Liquicolor® Assay is designed for seamless integration across 30+ open clinical chemistry analyzer...
