Abstract

In order to determinate the normal values for urine protein concentration in one sample of healthy population it was used a biuret reaction in 62 urine samples collected at random. The mean protein concentration in the whole group was 6.0mg% (SD ±3.2) with a range of 2.0 - 14.5mg%. Those results agreed with the previously reported, in the literature.
