Automatic assay of urinary total proteins on a centrifugal analyser. The assay of urinary proteins is achieved opacimetrically after precipitation by trichloracetic acid. The addition of tensio-active agents lates the initiation of precipitation, helps the formation of a microprecipitate thus hold in suspension. The technique is linear from 0 to 2,5 g/l and for every albumin/globulins ratio between pure albumin and pure globulin.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D011507	Proteinuria	The presence of proteins in the urine, an indicator of KIDNEY DISEASES.	Proteinurias
D002498	Centrifugation	Process of using a rotating machine to generate centrifugal force to separate substances of different densities, remove moisture, or simulate gravitational effects. It employs a large motor-driven apparatus with a long arm, at the end of which human and animal subjects, biological specimens, or equipment can be revolved and rotated at various speeds to study gravitational effects.

D003124	Colorimetry	Any technique by which an unknown color is evaluated in terms of standard colors. The technique may be visual, photoelectric, or indirect by means of spectrophotometry. It is used in chemistry and physics. (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 4th ed)
D005916	Globulins	A group of proteins that are salt-soluble and form a large fraction of BLOOD PROTEINS. There are three types of globulins, ALPHA-GLOBULINS, BETA-GLOBULINS, and GAMMA-GLOBULINS, which are distinguished from one another by their degree of electrophoretic mobility.	Globulin
