Evaluation of a urine dipstick protein to urine specific gravity ratio for the detection of proteinuria in dogs and cats

Abstract Background The utility of urine dipsticks for the quantification of proteinuria is limited because of the influence of urine specific gravity (USG). To circumvent the need for urine protein creatinine ratios (UPCR) some have proposed a calculated dipstick urine protein to USG ratio (DUR) fo...
