Test Description
Urine Creatinine, Urine Uric Acid, Urine Acid and Creatinine Ratio

Used to monitor the success of preventive treatment for urate bladder stones in Dalmatian dogs. This test is not preferred to a 24‑hour urine uric acid concentration. Urine spot testing (Urine urate: creatinine ratios) are too variable and do not correlate well with 24‑hour urine urate excretion.
