If I were to use lactase to break lactose down remaining in fermented kefir into galactose and glucose, could I then use this to measure the glucose?

Hello Nathan, That is a fantastic question that unfortunately does not have a simple answer. This strip is calibrated specifically to water based solutions so you can monitor the breakdown of other sugars into glucose but the thickness of the kefir may inhibit you from getting a useful and accurate reading. If you are looking to qualitatively determine if a reaction is happening this would likely work for your needs. But, we would recommend validating any processes you use if you are using it for anything more than a simple qualitative reading. I hope this helps you in the right direction. If you have any follow-up questions please do not hesitate to ask. -Scott

Will these show a reaction with bottled juices (orange, apple, grape, cranberry, etc.)?

This strip reacts to glucose and only glucose. Many juices (including orange juice) have glucose so this strip would react to them. That being said, this strip will not react to any sugars besides glucose including but not limited to artificial sweeteners. The Accuvin Residual sugar test strip (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0064OFVLE) tests for both Fructose and Glucose together. Another consideration is highly pigmented and colored juices (such as grape) can color over this test pad and its reaction. The Accuvin test strip's unique design removes these pigments and prevents interferences whereas this glucose test strip does not. Please let us know if you have any other questions and we will be happy to help! -Scott

Silly but very useful find!

It may seem silly to have to test a soda bought at a drive thru but a certain sugar free, diet, caffeine free drink is a favorite and watching blood sugar on a daily basis has become a must. These strips were bought after two soda purchases at the only drive thru that Carrie’s the favorite soda turned out not to be “diet” and blood sugar shot up like a rocket. Three times so far the strips were tested and preformed correctly. A control test on a regular soda showed sugar was in soda. This is well worth the trouble and keep them handy.

Accurate, inexpensive and easy to use test strip.

There really isn't anything to say against these test strips. They are accurate, easy to use and relatively inexpensive for the purpose they are intended.

Low sensitivity

Sensitivity to glucose is far lower than indicated. Probably expired or stored improperly. They will develop eventually but it may take a lot longer than 3 minutes
