Kidney

Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio (ACR)

Albumin loss through the kidneys begins without symptoms, and this ratio shows it before your eGFR moves.

< 3 < 3 mg/mmol

Kidney

Cystatin C

Cystatin C is an advanced kidney function marker that provides a highly accurate estimate of filtration rate.

Microalbumin (Urine)

Microalbumin testing is a proactive screening tool that detects early signs of kidney damage before symptoms develop. Regular monitoring supports timely intervention and helps maintain long-term kidney health.

< 20 < 20 mg/L

Kidney

Oxalate

Urinary oxalate testing helps assess your risk of calcium oxalate kidney stones. Proactive monitoring allows you to make informed dietary and hydration choices to support long-term kidney health.

Protein (Urine)

Proteinuria testing is a straightforward screening tool for kidney health.

Kidney

Urea (BUN)

BUN is a key kidney function marker that provides valuable insight into how well your kidneys filter waste products.

2.7-14.2 2.2-13.9 mmol/l

Kidney

Urine Bilirubin

Bilirubin is a yellow pigment formed when red blood cells break down.

Kidney

Urine Blood

This dipstick result detects blood in the urine that may not be visible to the eye.

Kidney

Urine Culture

A urine culture accurately identifies the bacteria causing a urinary tract infection and determines the most effective antibiotic treatment. This targeted approach supports faster recovery and helps prevent antibiotic resistance.

Kidney

Urine Glucose

Glucose is normally reabsorbed by the kidneys and is not present in urine.

Kidney

Urine Ketones

Ketones are produced when the body breaks down fat for energy instead of glucose.

Kidney

Urine Leukocytes

Leukocytes in your urine show that your body is fighting an infection somewhere in your urinary tract.

Learn more
Kidney

Urine Nitrite

Nitrite is not normally found in urine. Certain bacteria convert nitrate into nitrite, so a positive dipstick result can be a sign of a bacterial urinary tract infection.

Kidney

Urine Screening

Urine screening is a simple, comprehensive test that assesses multiple health parameters at once.

Kidney

Urine Sediment

Urine sediment analysis provides a detailed microscopic examination of your urine, offering insights beyond what a standard dipstick test can reveal.

Kidney

Urine Sediment Leukocytes

Sediment leukocytes are white blood cells counted under the microscope in spun-down urine. A few are normal; a higher number can point to inflammation or infection in the urinary tract.

Urine Specific Gravity

Specific gravity reflects how concentrated your urine is, which is closely tied to how well hydrated you are. It typically ranges from about 1.002 to 1.035.

1-1.04 1-1.04 g/ml

Kidney

Urine Squamous Epithelial Cells

Squamous epithelial cells line the lower urinary and genital tract.

Kidney

Urine pH

Urine pH describes how acidic or alkaline your urine is. It naturally varies through the day with diet, hydration and other factors, and usually falls between roughly 4.5 and 8.0.

4.5-8 4.5-8 pH

eGFR (Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate)

Your eGFR value tells you how many millilitres of blood your kidneys clean per minute, and one number under 60 says far less than it seems. eGFR stands for estimated glomerular filtration rate, and that word estimated is the important one: nobody measured your kidneys.
