24 hour urine protein quantification

24-hour urinary protein quantification refers to a urine test method that collects all urine excreted within 24 hours, measures the 24-hour urine volume, and quantifies the protein in the urine, which can reflect renal function. Under normal circumstances, the glomerular filtration membrane can only pass through substances with a lower molecular weight. Normal people's daily urine protein is generally 40-80 mg, this content can not usually be detected by the method of protein qualitative test. With certain diseases, increased protein leakage can be detected positive for urinary protein. Therefore, the results of the qualitative report of urinary protein are rough. The 24-hour urinary protein quantitative test can accurately measure the amount of protein excreted in the urine.
