sediment. Turbidity varies as a result of the number of organisms that are present. Turbidity increases as the number of organisms increases. There is a slight turbidity indicating presence of few organisms. Normal, It depends largely on hydration status. When fluid intake decreases, specific gravity normally increases. With high fluid intake, specific gravity decreases. Normal. Inside healthy kidneys, tiny filtering units called nephrons filter out wastes but keep in large molecules, like red blood cells and albumin (protein). Some kidney diseases damage these filters so albumin and other proteins can leak into the urine. Proteinalbuminin the urine can be a sign of kidney disease. Albumin levels can increase with heavy exercise, poor blood sugar control, urinary tract infections, and other illnesses. Normal. Normally, the amount of glucose in the urine is negligible, although individuals who have ingested large amounts of sugar may show small amounts of glucose in the urine Normal. WBC in urine is most commonly neutrophils. WBC up to 5/HPF are commonly accepted as normal. Greater numbers (pyuria) generally indicate the presence of an inflammatory process somewhere along the course of the urinary tract (or urogenital tract in voided specimens). Normal, Red blood cells up to 5/HPF are commonly accepted as normal. Increased red cells in urine is termed hematuria, which can be due to hemorrhage, inflammation, necrosis, trauma, or neoplasia somewhere along the urinary tract (or urogenital tract in voided specimens Normal, Epithelial cells in urine are generally of little specific diagnostic utility. Cells lining the urinary tract at any level may slough into the urine. In the case of voided samples, even cells from the genital tract can appear in the sample.

Calcium oxalate is a salt of oxalic acid, which in excess in the urine may lead to formation of oxalate calculi. The findings of some bacteria in urine is not unusual. Significant bacteria with white cells in large numbers indicate an infection, or renal or prostae disorders.

Interpretation Normal, Hgb has the unique property of combining reversibly with oxygen and is the medium by which oxygen is transported within the body. It is ironcontaining protein of RBCs. It takes up oxygen as blood passes through the lungs and releases it as blood passes through the tissues. With iron deficiency, bone marrow iron stores are rapidly decreases and the erythrocytes produced by the marrow are small and low in hemoglobin Normal, RBC is a cellular component of blood involved in the transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide. The patients RBC is below the normal range which indicates a shortage called anemia. It can result from a decreased rate of production of RBC. Normal WBC or leukocyte protects the body from invasion by bacteria and other foreign entities Normal. A neutrophil is a fully mature WBC capable of phagocytosis and essential in preventing and limiting bacterial infection High lymphocyte count or lymphocytosis is an abnormal increase in the number of lymphocytes. Common causes include viral and bacterial infections. Lymphocytosis typically causes no symptoms and is often discovered incidentally.
