Physical and Chemical Urinalysis
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| pale color of urine | straw |
| Ictotest | confirms bilirubin test |
| glomerulus | tuft of capillaries in the nephron |
| nitrites test indicates | bacteria |
| pH measurement determines | acidic or alkaline urine |
| SSA | backup test for protein - albumin and globulin |
| medulla | central area of kidneys, contains tubules |
| cortex | outer area of kidney, contains glomerulus |
| Watson-Schwartz | test for urobilinogen and porphobilinogen |
| Erlich | dicovered the methodology/reagent for urobilinogen test |
| ureter | carries urine from kidneys to bladder |
| GFR | volume filtered by the glomerulus over time |
| osmolality | tests concentrating ability of kidney using freezing point depression |
| Refractometer | measures concentration using refractive index of light |
| amber | color of urine when bilirubin is present |
| glucose | analyte in urine eleveated in Diabetes Mellitus |
| bladder | elastic muscular sac that stores urine |
| nephron | working unit of the kidney |
| Acetest | backup test for ketones |
| Rothera | Along with Legal developed strip testing for ketones |
| Tubules | portion of the nephron where final concentration of the urine is done |
| blood | chemical testing based on the pseudoperoxidase ability of heme |
| Clinitest | backup test for reducing substances |
| Ultrafiltrate | contains everything that blood plasma contains minus large molecules |
| Benedict | responsible for copper backup test - Clinitest |
| Albumin | The portion of protein measured by dipstick technology |
| Anuria | absence of urine |
| Greiss | nitrite chemstrip reaction |
| Renal threshold | the most that can be reabsorbed back into the bloodstream |
