Does alkaline urine cause RBC to lyse?
Alkaline urine itself does not directly cause red blood cells (RBCs) to lyse. However, certain conditions associated with alkaline urine, such as urinary tract infections caused by urease-producing bacteria, can lead to changes in the urine's chemical composition that may contribute to hemolysis. Additionally, extremely high pH levels can affect the stability of red blood cells, but this is generally less common. Overall, while alkaline urine can be associated with conditions that promote RBC lysis, it is not a direct cause.
