The 24-hour urine uric acid test measures the amount of uric acid excreted over a 24-hour period, helping to assess uric acid metabolism. We use automated spectrophotometry to ensure accurate and reliable results.
Collect all urine voided over a 24-hour period in an appropriate container. At the end of the period, mix well and take a 10 mL aliquot for analysis. It is important to indicate the total volume of urine collected.
