Arrange the sequence of steps followed for the detection of glucose in urine:
A. Record the glucose level based on the color change observed. B. Use a urine dipstick or test strip to perform the urine glucose test. C. Collect a urine sample from the patient in a clean, dry container. D. Compare the color change on the dipstick or test strip to the provided color chart. E. Immerse the dipstick or test strip into the urine sample for the specified amount of time.
Options:

Correct option is A

Sol. The correct sequence of steps for detecting glucose in urine is as follows:
1. C - Collect a urine sample in a clean, dry container.
2. B - Use a urine dipstick or test strip to perform the urine glucose test.
3. E - Immerse the dipstick or test strip into the urine sample for the specified amount of time.
4. D - Compare the color change on the dipstick or test strip to the provided color chart.
5. A - Record the glucose level based on the color change observed.
Explanation of each option:
· (a) CBEAD – Correct answer. This follows the logical steps required for urine glucose testing.
· (b) AECDB – Incorrect. Recording the glucose level (A) should come at the end, not at the beginning.
· (c) EDCBA – Incorrect. Collecting the sample (C) should be the first step, not missing from the beginning.
· (d) CBEDA – Incorrect. The order of analysis is slightly off, as comparison (D) should come before recording (A).
