URINE FOR CHYLOMICRONS

The urine chylomicron test is a diagnostic method designed to detect the presence of chylomicrons, specialized lipoprotein particles, in urine. In normal circumstances, urine should not contain chylomicrons, which are responsible for transporting dietary fats through the lymphatic system. When chylomicrons are found in urine, a condition referred to as chyluria, it can give the urine a milky or turbid appearance. Chyluria is often associated with various health conditions, including disorders affecting lymphatic flow, parasitic infections, or kidney-related issues. This test serves as a valuable tool for Hypro Diagnostics in identifying the underlying cause of chyluria, facilitating precise diagnosis and targeted treatment. Evaluating chylomicrons in urine becomes particularly useful when investigating disorders that impact fat metabolism and lymphatic circulation.
