What are the contituents of urine?
  • 1 answers

Vedansh Bajaj 7 years, 1 month ago

Urine is an aqueous solution of greater than 95% water, with a minimum of these remaining constituents, in order of decreasing concentration: Urea 9.3 g/L. Chloride 1.87 g/L. Sodium 1.17 g/L. Potassium 0.750 g/L. Creatinine 0.670 g/L . Other dissolved ions, inorganic and organic compounds (proteins, hormones, metabolites). Urine is sterile until it reaches the urethra, where epithelial cells lining the urethra are colonized by facultatively anaerobic gram-negative rods and cocci. Urea is essentially a processed form of ammonia that is non-toxic to mammals, unlike ammonia, which can be highly toxic. It is processed from ammonia and carbon dioxide in the liver.
