Clinitest was usually run as a reflex test on urine samples with a negative dipstick glucose result. A negative dipstick glucose assay and a positive reducing test suggest that some substance other than glucose is present in the urine.These sugars include galactose, lactose, and fructose.However, Clinitest, which involves the reduction of colorless cupric ion to colored cuprous ion, is not specific for sugars.ased on this information, many laboratories have discontinued automatic reflex testing for reducing substances in children less than 2 years of age. Clinitest is only performed at the specific order of a physician.
