| Preferred Volume |
10 mL |
| Minimum Volume |
5 mL |
| Collection Procedure |
Collect a 24-hour urine in a 24-hour dark plastic urine container or a random urine collection. Refrigerate during collection. |
| Specimen Processing |
Aliquot 10 mL of a well-mixed 24-hour urine collection or random urine collection into a leakproof plastic urine container. Store and transport refrigerated. ARUP studies indicate that refrigeration of urine alone, during & after collectio preserves specimens adequately if tested within 14 days of collection. Record total volume and collection time. Submit specimen in two ARUP Trace Element-Free Transport Tubes (43116). |

Room Temp 1 week Refrigerated 2 weeks Frozen (-20°C) 1 year |
| Unacceptable Conditions |
Urine collected within 48 hours after administration of gadalinium (Gd) containing contrast media (may occur with MRI studies) or acid preserved urine specimens. |

range established.
Urine aluminum values
do not correlate well
with exposure. Elevated
levels should be
confirmed with a second
specimen due to a high
susceptibility of the
specimen to collection-
related environmental
contamination. |
