Microalbumin/Creatinine Ratio

Urine Creatinine test measures the level of Creatinine in your urine. Creatinine is a waste product of the body and your kidneys filter Creatinine out of your blood and pass it out of your body through urine. The Urine Creatinine test is often done as part of a health examination or to check kidney function. It can also be used in combination with other tests, such as the blood creatinine test or microalbumin. These tests are used to evaluate kidney function as well as to detect other urinary tract disorders.

Microalbumin tests help find small amounts of albumin that normal urinary tests can not detect. The Microalbumin test helps detect kidney damage early.

Serum urea test measures the level of urea in the blood, a waste product formed in the liver during protein metabolism. The kidneys are responsible for filtering urea from the blood and excreting it through urine. This test plays an important role in assessing kidney function. A high serum urea level may indicate that the kidneys are not functioning effectively and are unable to filter and remove waste products from the blood. In addition, urea levels can also be affected by other factors such as dehydration or a high-protein diet. Therefore, the serum urea test is a useful tool for diagnosing and monitoring the health and function of the kidneys.

Creatinine is a waste byproduct of normal muscle activity. The kidneys remove creatinine from the blood and it is then excreted through urine. A creatinine clearance test assesses how well the kidneys filter blood and is important for detecting and monitoring kidney problems.

The microalbumin test helps find small amounts of albumin that normal urinary tests can not detect. Microalbumin tests can detect kidney damage early.
