Microalbumin [Presence] in Urine by Test strip

Microalbumin Ur Ql Test Str

Definition

  • Test strip tests for microalbumin are generally expressed in low range increments such as 10 mg/L, 30 mg/L, 80 mg/L and 150 mg/L (Some kits will have a higher concentration point such as 500 mg/L). These terms will often be expressed semi-quantitatively in these range bins. However, some laboratories wish to report these categories ordinally as 1+, 2+, 3+, etc.
