While performing a routine urinalysis on a specimen collected from a patient, The MLS finds a specific gravity reading that exceeds the 1.035 scale on the refractometer If the urinalysis report has a protein (+1) and a negative glucose.
What is the most probable cause of this finding?
The MLS make 1:4 dilution of the specimen and repeat the specific gravity and gets a reading of 1.015. What is the actual specific gravity?Using 1 ml of urine. How would the MLS make the above dilution?
How would specific gravity be obtained from this specimen without diluting it?
