Artificial Urine for Biosensor Testing Applications – Sterile Synthetic Urine, pH 6.2 BZ325
Product Code: BZ325
Manufacturer: Biochemazone
Available Pack Sizes: 100 mL, 200 mL, 500 mL, 1 L
Custom Bulk Quantities Available
Product Overview
Biochemazone Artificial Urine for Biosensor Testing Applications BZ325 is a sterile, ready-to-use synthetic urine at pH 6.2 that closely resembles human urine. Synthetic urine is used by diagnostic companies for the testing of biosensor devices and by drug-testing laboratories as a matrix for quality-control preparations.
BZ325 gives a developer the same urine matrix in every batch, so that a sensor, a strip or a reader can be checked against a known, reproducible sample in place of collected urine, which differs from donor to donor and from day to day. Our artificial urine solutions are formulated according to official testing methods and to published research on the use of artificial urine.
It is supplied stabilized, with 0.05% preservative, and has a 1-year shelf life unopened; a preservative-free version (6-month shelf life) and a dried Powder Version Kit are available on request. The pH can be customized to the project requirement. This simulated fluid is for scientific research and in vitro use only. For a drug-free toxicology matrix see Drug-Free Synthetic Urine Matrix BZ571; for a general synthetic human urine see Artificial Human Urine BZ340.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why use artificial urine to test a biosensor?
Collected urine differs from donor to donor and from day to day in its salts, pH and organic content. A synthetic urine is the same in every bottle, so the response of a sensor can be compared between batches, devices and laboratories.
How long does the solution keep?
Unopened, the stabilized solution has a 1-year shelf life at 2–30 °C. A preservative-free version with a 6-month shelf life and a dried Powder Version Kit with a 2-year shelf life are available on request.
