Background Urinalysis is used by doctors to assess various factors of urine, including color and pH, that could indicate disease. These factors are normally kept in balance by the kidneys as they filter blood and produce urine but may change under certain conditions like disease or medication use, or even with certain foods. Color light yellow to amber clear to light yellow yellow orange to orange green red to red brown dark wine brown brown-black Test Result Low pH (<6) High pH (>8) Table 1. Urine Color and Possible Causes Diet Drugs normal increased fluid intake Glucose Present Protein Present carrots beets rhubarb (large quantity), fava beans, severe dehydration green food dyes, asparagus diuretics beets rhubarb (huge quantity), excessive sorbitol consumption Low Specific Gravity (<1.010) High Specific Gravity (>1.026) none alcohol antibiotics, pyridium senna laxatives large meal high protein diet anti-inflammatory drugs barbiturates antidepressants Normal urine colors range from light yellow to amber, depending upon the concentration of urobilin, the urinary pigment. Certain foods, drugs, diseases, and amount of water intake can cause lighter or darker urine. Table 2. Abnormal Urinalysis Results and Possible Causes Possible Causes Diet high protein diet; cranberry juice diet rich in vegetables; dairy products increased fluid intake none Disease uncontrolled diabetes mellitus bilirubin from obstructive jaundice bacterial infection hemoglobin in urine (various causes) hemolytic jaundice hemolytic anemia or liver disease; extremely strenuous exercise or muscle injury melanin pigment from melanoma (rare) Disease uncontrolled diabetes mellitus severe anemia severe renal damage decreased fluid intake; loss of fluids uncontrolled diabetes mellitus; severe anemia uncontrolled diabetes mellitus severe anemia
