What is the normal range of micro-albumin urea?

The relevant level which is checked in a blood sample (and sent to the lab) is called the BUN (blood urea nitrogen). The normal BUN level is 6- 23 mg/dl in most labs.


How much urea do you add to your feed to increase growth rate in dairy calves?

If your dairy calves are younger than 4 months of age or lighter than 400 to 450 pounds (181 to 204 kilograms), no urea should be fed. This is because they are unable to synthesize it as readily as calves that are 6 months of age and older, and if subject to excessive amounts of protein, could result in death. If the calves are actually older than 4 months old, then you must know these specifics:1) Urea should provide a maximum of 33 percent of total protein in the diet2) In complete diets, urea should not exceed a maximum of 1 to 1.5 percent of total ration (dry matter intake). Ideally, the maximum would be one percent, and no higher.3) Urea should not be included at rates above 2 percent of the grain portion of the ration, and grain should be fed at rate of at least 3 pounds (1.4 kilograms) per day. Adaptation to urea addition should take 10 to 14 days.4) Note: Urea contains 281 percent equivalent crude protein.Thus, your question ultimately it depends on the weight of the dairy calf or calves in question. For example, a 500 pound dairy calf requires 1.5 pounds of protein (500 pounds x 2 percent of body weight dry matter intake [DMI] = 10 pounds of DMI x 15 percent protein requirement = 1.5 pounds of protein required). The question is, how much urea is to be fed? Assume that--inaccuracies about actual feed being fed aside--a 32 percent supplement is fed, labeled as equivalent crude protein (ECP) percentage from non-protein nitrogen (NPN), and in this supplement 32-11 percent beef supplement--inaccurate to you dairy folks, I know, but bear with me--that is less than 12 percent ECP for cow and backgrounding/weaner diets. Questions are a) how much urea is in a 32 percent crude protein (CP) supplement with 20 percent ECP, b) how much urea is to be fed and how much of the supplement from part a) needs to be fed, and c) how much urea can be fed in a complete ration and how much supplement can be fed to meet the calf's requirements?A) First, we find how much urea is in a 32 percent crude protein (CP) supplement with 20 percent equivalent crude protein (ECP) from urea.(Note: Out of 32 percent crude protein, 20 percent is from urea and 12 percent is from natural sources.) Since urea contains 281 percent ECP, the amount of urea in the supplement is 20 ÷ 2.81 = 7.12 pounds or kilograms in 100 pounds or kilograms of supplement(NOTE: DO NOT take this number as a means to know how much urea to feed to an animal, be it a weaned calf or a mature cow. A producer did this by accident and it resulted in major death loss to much of their herd.)B) Now we take the protein requirement of the 500 pound Holstein calf and find out the amount of urea and 32 percent supplement that can be fed to this calf.Remember that a urea-based supplement should not provide more than 33 percent of the total protein. Total protein that can safely come from urea is 1.5 x 0.33 = 0.495 pounds.The amount of urea to supply this amount of protein is 0.495 ÷ 2.81 = 0.176 pounds of urea. Since the amount of urea in the supplement from part A) is 7.12 percent, the maximum amount of supplement (NOT urea!) that can be safely fed is 0.176 ÷ 0.0712 = 2.47 pounds per head per day.C) If this 500 pound Holstein calf's DMI is 10 pounds (actual as-fed consumption amount primarily depends on the moisture content of the feed, although protein content also affects as-fed feed intake), then to determine how much urea to be fed in a complete ration is 0.01 x 10 pounds DMI (dry matter intake) = 0.1 pounds of urea.Amount of supplement (from part A)) is 0.1 ÷ 0.0712 = 1.41 pounds of supplement per head per day.These numbers from parts B) and C) show the minimum and maximum amount of urea that can be fed to a calf of this weight. The 0.1 pounds in part C) is how the maximum amount of urea that can be fed in a complete ration. The minimum (1.41 pounds) and maximum (2.47 pounds) of supplement that can be fed will become more equal as the calf grows bigger and her protein requirements become less with age. For instance, a 1300 pound mature cow will have a minimum supplement requirement of 3.1 pounds and a maximum of 3.4 pounds.

What is significance of urine in orchids?

In pot/mount/bark/moss culture the significance is on a parallel with salts, so toxic. Growers opt for non urea nitrogen feeds as urea (the reason a cat likes to lick our skin) is a waste product but part of natural decomp process in the nitrogen cycle. Urea to ammonia to nitrite to nitrate to nitrogen. Bacteria perform this act of kindness for us. A potted plant will sustain very little in terms of a mini ecosystem and so useless but dangerous. Orchid cannot absorb urea they have to wait, but by the time cycle is complete is washed out of pot anyway. Non urea non urine but the end result of cycle - nitrogen is available for plant quicker almost immediately as the work of organisms has been done prior. Nitrates are the reason for excessive growth in aqua and excessine algae in ponds, a very rich nutrient but ofcouse in a large working eco sytem plants in the majority use it but higher doses in small water bodies decide the fate of your tropical fishes. An established tank will have healthy populations of good bacteria in gravel bed and filter. Nitrites, ammonia urea are toxic in concentrated dose. Would or could be considered a useful tool for organic gardners as a bucket full of urine thrown on a compost heap puts the whole compost process in to a advantaged status. Orchids especially epiphytes need nitrogen and bark chips contain zero use for the plant except stability ofcourse and the air circulation factor. In a larger organic natural setting such as growers in tropical climates with backgardens that would make me drool, the situation only then begins to have an element of significance as mounted orchids will have a living tree and not an inch squared bark/ sphag mount. Debris will collect in pockets and crevices as nature intended. Basically urine would be a significant useful horticultural tool because matured established organic environments provide room for so much biological activity. The waste product urine - urea- ammonia of the nitrogen cycle would have less chance of contact and thus physical harm from contact. Of course in any setting a man has the advantage of using secluded trees and hedges as cover while he disposes of his bodies waste product and in this current day and age as human livers and kidneys suffer abuse no -one can be sure of the scale of additional toxic substances still present, kidney and liver organs decline in functionality and the bladder has zero tolerance for inflicted damage and cant store waste fluid waiting for kidney to complete its task in total. Beer is said to be a health property for orchid cultivation. While two plants of same factors grow in two selected spots of the garden, urine will enter the bio process of decay determined by circumstances and one spot differs to another with many variables.


Why mixed urea in cattle feed?

Increase in protein content in the hay. The hay may lack a certain amount of protein, so measures have to be taken to increase protein in the hay (and thus in the cows' diet) to meet the cows' nutritional demands.
