TES CEPAT UNTUK DETEKSI ALBUMINURIA BERBASIS PERAK IODIDA(AgI) dan METILEN BIRU

Albuminuria is a condition of the presence of albumin in the urine. The presence of albumin can be an indicator of kidney and cardiovascular diseases. Albumin can be detected based on the change of color from blue to brownish using a silver iodide – methylene blue sensor. This rapid test was developed to detect albuminuria in the urine by utilizing silver iodide (AgI) and methylene blue reagents. The chemical sensor was a colorimetric sensor immobilized with paper and detected by scannometric methods.  The analysis of the sensor color changes for albumin was carried out using ImageJ software. The proposed silver iodide - methylene blue-based albumin sensor had a response time of 7 minutes with a linear range from 200 to 500 ppm and the detection limit of 83,039 ppm qualification limit. The sensor had reproducibility (RSD = 2.6917%) with a service life of more than 5 months with an accuracy value of 100.662%. Keywords: albuminuria, chemical sensor, rapid test.
