Urine Supersaturation Profile : 0081145

Mnemonic: URINE SAT

Methodology: Quantitative Spectrophotometry/Quantitative Enzymatic/Quantitative Ion-Selective Electrode
Performed: Wed, Fri
Reported: 1-8 days
Specimen Required: Collect: 24-hour urine. Use Kidney Stone/Supersaturation Urine Collection Kit (ARUP supply #46007). Available online through eSupply using ARUP Connect™ or contact ARUP Client Services at (800) 522-2787. Refrigerate during collection.

Specimen Preparation: Specimen should be delivered to laboratory ASAP following collection. Freeze specimens immediately after aliquoting. Do not exceed 4 mL in tubes. Transport four
separate 4 mL aliquots from a well-mixed 24-hour urine collection according to the following specifications:
1st aliquot (pH 1.5-2): Transfer 4 mL urine to the sulfamic acid tube. Mix well, then freeze.
2nd aliquot (pH 9): Transfer 4 mL urine to the sodium carbonate tube. Mix well, then freeze.
3rd aliquot: Transfer 4 mL urine to an unpreserved tube. Mix well, then freeze.
4th aliquot: Transfer 4 mL urine to an unpreserved tube. Mix well, then freeze.
If collection kit is unavailable, transport four 4 mL unadjusted aliquots of urine.


Storage/Transport Temperature: Frozen.

Unacceptable Conditions: Any specimen other than 24 hour urine collection.

Stability (collection to initiation of testing): Ambient: Unacceptable; Refrigerated: Unacceptable; Frozen: 2 weeks
