This test is also offered in combination with cultural urinalysis. In this case, 6 ml of urine are needed for the examination.
If characteristic crystals (see figure) are found in the sediment, the animal species, urine pH and specific gravity should be included to draw clear conclusions about the chemical composition.
Submission of urine (cystocentesis or catheter urine or cleancatch midstream urine) and a swab of urine (swab with medium) is ideal.
The urine culture test is also offered in combination with the examination of urinalysis/sediment. In this case, please send in at least 6 ml of urine.
