How soon must a urine specimen reach the laboratory?

How soon a specimen of something must reach the laboratory depends partly on the reason for which it is being sent to the laboratory, environmental conditions during storage and transit, and the stability of the substances the specimen consists of. A urine specimen must be refrigerated during storage and transit and arrive in the lab within an hour or two. It cannot sit out because warmth will allow bacteria, if present, to begin to grow in numbers.


What can i write for a hypothesis when growing table salt and epsom salt crystals my big question is which substance will grow bigger crystals table salt or epsom salts?

You make a prediction based on something you know. So I know that table salt is sodium chloride (2 atoms). Epsom Salt is Magnesium Sulfate (MgSO4) which is 6 atoms. If we assume that the crystals grow at the same rate (same number of molecules per minute), then my prediction would be the Magnesium Sulfate will make bigger crystal structure, because of the bigger molecules. So I would expect the Epsom Salts to grow much faster - maybe up to 3 times faster. That would be a hypothesis that is testable and measurable.
