Protein creatinine index and
Albustix is assessment of proteinuria.
Those patient were included who had no evidence of proteinuria in urinalysis and without abnormal serum BUN and creatinine.Morning mid-stream urine sample negative for proteinuria by
Albustix was used to calculate micro albumin: creatinine ratio in mg/g.
The uniqueness of this study is that the hypertensive cases included although exhibited an increased serum creatinine level, had preserved renal function as implied by the negative
albustix test done to detect urine albuminuria.

Proteinuria was measured by dipstick method using
Albustix (Bayer Corp., Elkhart, IN).

Nephropathy: Morning midstream urine sample negative for proteinuria by
Albustix was used to calculate micro albumin: creatinine ratio in mg/g.
After in vivo exposure to BPA at 5 weeks of age, female NZB/NZW mice were monitored for lupus disease symptoms by measuring protein levels in urine using
Albustix (Fisher Scientific, Pittsburgh, PA).
Microalbuminuria is defined as an increased excretion of albumin above the reference range for healthy nondiabetic subjects, but which is undetectable by the
Albustix dipstick test (5).
