| Specimen #2 - Adult Male This report indicates that the specimen is normal. The physical characteristics and microscopic tests do not correlate, as 3+ amorphous urates would probably produce a more turbid or cloudy specimen. Amorphous crystals have little clinical significance and may precipitate out of solution with storage temperature changes. Therefore, the results may be reported. | View Page |
| Amorphous Urates Amorphous urates appear as dark or yellow red granules while phosphates are white or colorless. The pH of the urine determines the type of amorphous crystals present. They may be urates in acid urine or phosphates in alkaline urine. | View Page |
