The Atago Urine Specific Gravity Refractometer, from LaneWorkSafe , measures dehydration by testing urine (3 drops), and can effectively analyse how healthy a person is or whether they need to require hydration. Studies suggest that dehydration may lead to health issues including diabetes, high blood pressure and kidney disease, as well as increases the chance of physical tiredness, underperforming at work and reduced reflex reaction times.
The handheld digital refractometer needs just 3 drops of urine and with the push of a button, the result will be provided in less than 5 seconds. The machine can be cleaned using a clean tissue or cleaned and calibrated by running it under clear water.
