| urine osmolality |
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.

| urine |
Urine is analysed for Protein (P) (or Albumin (Alb)) which, ideally should not be present at all, but an excess of which can be one of the signs of pre-eclampsia, and Glucose (G) (or sugar) which can be normal but you may need to be checked for pregnancy diabetes. When sugar is present it is noted as a percentage, two percent is generally thought of as a large amount. There are occasional traces of Protein and Glucose in a normal pregnancy. Other (O) tests are used to check for infection.
