What Is Smith's Reagent Used For?
In physiology and clinical biochemistry teaching, the name Smith's reagent is generally associated with Smith's test, a quick qualitative screen for bile pigments in urine. A small volume of the sample is placed in a clean test tube and the reagent is run slowly down the inside wall so that it settles as a separate layer; a green ring at the junction of the two layers is read as a positive result, while no ring suggests the pigments are not present at a detectable level. Because recipes and names vary between syllabi, please confirm with us that this reagent matches the procedure in your practical manual before you order.
For reliable readings, run a known negative sample next to the unknown, tilt the tube while pouring so the layers do not mix, and read the result against a white background within a few moments. Colleges that source their biology lab equipment in India from one supplier often add this reagent to the same order as test tubes, droppers and the other urine-analysis reagents, which keeps a practical session complete and consistent from bench to bench.

These items are used in the same urine-analysis practical or help students handle the reagent neatly:
- Test Tubes (With Rim) — the rimmed tube makes layering the reagent over the sample easier to control
- Dropper — lets students add the reagent slowly down the tube wall instead of pouring from the bottle
- Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose) — for the sugar test that usually runs in the same urine-analysis session
- Sulphosalicylic Acid — covers the protein test on the same urine sample
