Why is the first-voided morning urine D
specimen the most desirable
specimen for routine urinalysis?
A. It is the most dilute specimen of the
day and, therefore, any chemical com-
pounds present will not exceed the
detectability limits of the reagent
strips
B. It is the specimen least likely to be
contaminated with microorganisms
because the bladder is a sterile
environment
C. It is the specimen most likely to
contain protein because the patient
has been in the orthostatic position
during the night
D. It is the most concentrated
specimen of the day and, therefore, it
is more likely that abnormalities will be
detected
The physical characteristic of color is A
assessed when a routine urinalysis is
performed. Which of the following will
affect that color significantly?
A. Bilirubin
B. Glucose
C. Albumin
D. Ketones
, In which disorder will a urine turn C
black if the sample's pH becomes
alkaline upon standing?
A. Malignant melanoma
B. Hemolytic anemia
C. Alkaptonuria
D. Hepatitis
What is the expected pH range of a D
freshly voided urine specimen?
A. 3.5-8.0
B. 3.5-9.0
C. 4.0-8.5
D. 4.5-8.0
Urine specimens should be analyzed B
as soon as possible after collection. If
urine specimens are allowed to stand
at room temperature for an excessive
amount of time, the urine pH will
become alkaline because of bacterial
decomposition of
A. Protein
B. Urea
C. Creatinine
D. Ketones
Which term is defined as a urine D
specific gravity which is 1.035?
A. Anuria
B. Oliguria
C. Polyuria
D. Hypersthenuria
