Service Providers for 24 hrs. Urine for Uric Acid
24-Hour Urine for Uric Acid is a test that measures the amount of uric acid excreted in the urine over a 24-hour period. Uric acid is a waste product formed from the breakdown of purines (substances found in certain foods and cells). This test is used to assess conditions such as gout, kidney stones, or renal function. Elevated uric acid levels in the urine can indicate an increased risk of uric acid kidney stones. The test requires collecting all urine over a 24-hour period, and accurate collection is important for reliable results. Certain foods, medications, or health conditions can affect uric acid levels.
