It indicates a kidney disorder, because about half of NPN substances is urea (what the kidneys excrete).
The blood urea nitrogen (BUN) test measures the level of urea nitrogen in a sample of the patient's blood.

Blood Urea Nitrogen
Blood is full of nitrogen. Nitrogen makes grass grow. So yes.
High blood protein can be a warning sign of chronic inflammation or infection. High blood protein levels have also been linked to certain bone marrow diseases.
yes in the form of protein
T protein = Total protein
An abnormally high blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level may indicate damage to the kidneys and a decreased ability to properly remove nitrogenous waste from the blood in your urine.
I have a low protein in the blood result....would like to know what causes this, and how do I elevate the protein to what it should be. Thank you Ann
yes there is protein in the blood in the form of albumin serum. albumin serum is protein which can symbolise general health of a person. Low albumin levels indicate infections, malignancies, tumours. high albumin serum indicate dehydration
Diseases including liver and kidney disease increase the white blood cells in cats. A high white blood count can indicate a serious problem.
It would increase.
A blood serum enzyme test measures how much muscle protein is ciruclating in the blood. Antibodies might indicate an inflammatory myopathy; genetic testing may indicate if defects exist.
If you have too much protein in your blood it is called hyperproteinemia. This is a condition caused by dehydration, an increase in protein consumption, or inflammation of the liver.
Measurement of other blood components such as sodium, potassium, bicarbonate, urea nitrogen, and lactic acid.
Blood urea nitrogen test (BUN). Urea is a by-product of protein metabolism. This waste product is formed in the liver, then filtered from the blood and excreted in the urine by the kidneys. The BUN test measures the amount of nitrogen.
An abnormal increase in venous pressure may indicate a problem with one of the heart valves. It could also mean that the person is on medication that causes higher blood pressure.
