Q

34
Q

false negatives of protein in alkaline urine from what test

35
Q

what is the only proteinuria that will cause hypoalbuminemia

A
  • renal - glomerular proteinuria
36
Q

features of prerenal proteinuria

A
  • proteins < 60,000 will pass through glomerulus
37
Q

features of renal (glomerular) proteinuria

A
  • proteins > 60,000 will pass through glomerulus (porous)

- causes hypoalbuminemia

38
Q

features of renal (tubular) proteinuria

A
  • decrease absorption of proteins < 60,000

- associated with acute renal disease

39
Q

features of postrenal proteinuria

A
  • cells and hemorrhage leak into bladder -> plasma proteins added
40
Q

hyperglycemic glucosuria due to

A
  • increase plasma [glucose] -> exceeds renal threshold
41
Q

renal glucosuria (glycosuria) due to

A
  • plasma [glucose] is WRI

- tubular disease/defect -> defective glucose resorption

42
Q

congenital fanconi syndrome common in what dog breed

A
  • basenji

- damage of tubules due to congenital disease

43
Q

glucosuria effects on urine volume

A
  • glucose in tubular fluid -> decreases osmotic gradient -> decreases H2O resorbed -> increase urine volume
44
Q

what ketone is mainly detected on the strip

A
  • acetoacetate

- acetone lost quickly

45
Q

ketones in urine is common in (2)

A
  • diabetes mellitus

- bovine ketosis

46
Q

ketones in urine is promoted by
