Urine contains water, waste products like urea, creatinine, and uric acid, as well as electrolytes and hormones. Blood contains red and white blood cells, platelets, plasma, electrolytes, hormones, nutrients, oxygen, and waste products like carbon dioxide and urea.
Red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets are typically present in blood but not normally found in urine.
Not necessarily. Urine tests and blood tests measure different things and have different detection windows. Passing a urine test does not guarantee passing a blood test, as they are used to detect different substances and levels of substances in the body.
Urine is the liquid produced in the kidneys. It is a waste product that contains water, salts, and other substances filtered out from the blood by the kidneys.
The term "re-absorption" is used in urine formation because it refers to the process of reclaiming useful substances (such as water, ions, and nutrients) from the filtrate back into the bloodstream. This process occurs in the renal tubules after the initial filtration of blood in the glomerulus. "Absorption" typically refers to the movement of substances from the external environment into the body, whereas "re-absorption" specifically involves reclaiming substances that were already present in the body.
No. It's EVERYTHING that was filtered out of your blood minus those substances reabsorbed by the kidney. Thus it changes every day.
Plasma proteins and red blood cells are not excreted in urine because they remain in the blood when it is filtered through the kidneys and into the ureters. They are too big to be filtered. Most other substances present in blood are also present in urine since the kidneys filter out poisonous substances as well as substances that are present in excess such as salt and water.
Red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets are typically present in blood but not normally found in urine.
Urea is one of the substances in urine, and urine is in your blood stream until the kidney extract the urine from your blood.
Yes, a UTI can be present without any blood in the urine.

Blood, proteins, and sugars are absent from the filtrate and urine of a healthy adult. If any of these are present it is a sign that something is not right and should be addressed right away.
