What is Glutamine Quantitative Urine 24H?

This test measures the total amount of glutamine, an essential amino acid, excreted in your urine over a 24-hour period. It provides insight into how your kidneys process and excrete glutamine.

Why is this test important?

Measuring glutamine in 24-hour urine can help assess kidney function, identify certain metabolic disorders, or evaluate amino acid transport issues. It complements blood tests for a comprehensive view of glutamine metabolism.

How to Prepare

You will need to collect all urine passed over a 24-hour period in a special container provided by the lab. Specific instructions will be given on how to start and end the collection.
