What is it indicated for?

The Nova Allegro urine albumin creatinine ratio (UACR) Assay is intended for the quantitative determination of albumin,

creatinine, and the albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR) in human urine. The measurement of urine albumin, creatinine, and

albumin/creatinine ratio aids in the early diagnosis of nephropathy.

The Nova Allegro Analyzer is intended for in vitro diagnostic use in clinical laboratory and near-patient testing (point-of-

care) settings for the quantitative determination of Nova Allegro Assays using Nova Allegro Test Cartridges.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
