Early Kidney Protein Test - Microalbuminuria Test

A sensitive laboratory test that measures the presence and quantity of low-concentration (30-300 mg/24 hours or 20-200 µg/min) albumin protein in urine, which cannot be detected by a standard urine dipstick test. Microalbuminuria is the first and most important laboratory marker for early-stage diabetic nephropathy and a strong risk factor for cardiovascular disease.
