Limitations in Clinical Use of a Screening Test for Protein

[摘要] Quantitative estimation of protein in cerebrospinal fluid, amniotic, and similar protein-poor body fluids by means of a widely used strip test is not reliable. For this purpose, the turbidity test of Meulemans (1960) appears satisfactory. The strip test is a convenient and reliable means of detecting protein (albumin-globulin mixtures) in the urine of pregnant women.
