The collection and analysis of urine for biochemical analysis can be a very useful technique in the evaluation of the renal handling of water. In healthy adults the urine osmolality varies from about 50 to around 1400 mOsmol/kg depending on the state of hydration of the subject. Thus to interpret a urine osmolality value one needs to also measure the plasma osmolality and see whether the urine osmolality is appropriate.
