Urine Microalbumin Test Reagent (Immunofluorescence Chromatography) Performance Index (MAU)
MAU Overview
Albumin is one of the important plasma proteins. Under normal circumstances, the molecular weight of albumin is large and it cannot pass through the basement membrane of the glomerulus. Therefore, there is only a very low concentration of albumin in the urine of healthy people, specifically up to 20mg of urinary albumin per liter. In disease, damage to the glomerular basement membrane changes the permeability. Any lesion that increases the permeability of the glomerular basement membrane can lead to the excretion of albumin. At this time albumin into the urine, urine albumin concentration is continuously increased.
MAU Performance index
| Detection range | sample size | Sample type | Test time |
| 5~300mg/L | 70μl | urine | 5min |
Clinical significance of MAU
- Characterization of early renal damage in diabetic and hypertensive patients
- Signs of changes in the entire vascular system, early indications of changes in the renal and cardiovascular systems
- Monitoring of renal injury in pregnancy-induced hypertension
| type | MAU recommended test time |
| Diabetic | Positive for the first time | At least 2 more tests within 3-6 months; If there are 2 positive, it is early diabetic nephropathy |
| Type 1 diabetes mellitus | After 5 years of onset, the patients were measured 1-3 times per year |
| Type 2 diabetes mellitus | At the time of diagnosis, 1-3 times / year |
| Only microalbuminuria positive | Follow-up tests were performed every 3 months |
| normal person | Once a year |
Application Department
