Standing urine develops a strong odor due to the breakdown of urea by bacteria, which convert it into ammonia. As urine sits, bacteria multiply and produce volatile compounds that contribute to the foul smell. Factors like the concentration of waste products, temperature, and the presence of organic material can also intensify the odor. Additionally, urine can become more pungent if it is concentrated, particularly in cases of dehydration.
