If urea accumulated in the blood, then you would probably die, because urea is technically a diluted version of ammonia, which is highly toxic.
You would die because urea comes from the toxic nitrogenous waste in our body, and although less toxic, is still harmfull.
The Kidneys, where the blood/urea thing takes place.
The kidney gets rid of urea, a waste product generated from the breakdown of proteins in the body. Urea is removed from the blood by the kidneys and excreted in the urine.
A blood urea nitrogen (BUN) test measures the amount of nitrogen in the blood that comes from urea, a waste product of protein metabolism. The test can help evaluate kidney function and detect possible kidney disease or dysfunction. It is often ordered as part of a routine metabolic panel or to monitor certain health conditions.
The formation of urea in the liver helps eliminate toxic ammonia from the body. Ammonia is a byproduct of protein metabolism and can be harmful if it accumulates in high levels. By converting ammonia to urea, the body can safely excrete it through urine, preventing poisoning.
They kidneys get rid of the urea produced by the liver. The skin also excretes a small amount of urea in the sweat.
What is the difference between urea and BUN
The Kidneys, where the blood/urea thing takes place.
Urea is one of the substances in urine, and urine is in your blood stream until the kidney extract the urine from your blood.
the blood plasma carries waste products, including urea.
Urea passes through the dialysis tubing into the dialysis fluid due to the process of diffusion, where molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. The dialysis tubing is semi-permeable, allowing small molecules like urea to cross while retaining larger molecules and cells. As urea accumulates in the blood and reaches a higher concentration than in the dialysis fluid, it diffuses out to achieve equilibrium. This process helps remove waste products from the blood in dialysis treatments.
Kidney

Fibrinogen and Urea are not found in blood. Fibrinogen is a clotting factor found in plasma, while urea is a waste product of protein metabolism mostly excreted by kidneys. Glycogen, Glucose, and Albumin are all present in blood.
Urea clearance test. Urea is a waste product that is created by protein metabolism and excreted in the urine. The urea clearance test requires a blood sample to measure the amount of urea in the bloodstream and two urine specimens,
Too much or too little urea nitrogen in the blood could signify kidney problems.
Really? Urea and water... Urine
Urea is removed in the kidneys and sent to the bladder.
