The 24-HRS-URINARY-OXALATE test helps identify abnormal oxalate levels that may contribute
The 24-HRS-URINARY-OXALATE test measures the total amount of oxalate excreted in urine over a full 24-hour period. Oxalate is a natural substance found in many foods and also produced by the body. When oxalate levels rise above normal, it increases the risk of forming kidney stones, especially calcium oxalate stones. This test is essential for people dealing with recurrent kidney stones, unexplained abdominal pain, or metabolic disorders that affect kidney function.
High urinary oxalate is one of the primary causes of kidney stones. This test helps doctors evaluate:
Risk of recurrent kidney stones
Malabsorption disorders such as Crohn’s disease or celiac disease
Oxalate overproduction due to metabolic imbalance
Dietary influence on urinary oxalate levels
Kidney functioning and filtration capability
By identifying elevated oxalate levels early, patients can follow dietary, medical, and lifestyle changes to prevent complications. The test is especially recommended for individuals who have already experienced kidney stones or have a family history of renal disorders.

Useful for patients undergoing dietary restrictions, medication, or hydration therapy.Guides Personalized Diet Plans
Helps nutritionists and doctors tailor low-oxalate diet plans to reduce stone risk.Detects Underlying Metabolic Disorders
Helps diagnose intestinal malabsorption, overproduction of oxalate, or renal tubular damage.Easy, Safe & Non-Invasive
Requires only urine collection, making it suitable for all age groups.
The test involves collecting all urine passed in 24 hours.
Step-by-step Process:
Receive the 24-hour urine container from Diagnopein.
Discard the first morning urine, then start collecting all urine for the next 24 hours.
Store the container in a cool place during the collection period.
Ensure no sample is missed, as missing urine may affect accuracy.
Return the sample to the Diagnopein lab in Nanded for analysis.

Diagnopein is committed to providing safe, precise, and timely diagnostic services that help improve patient care and long-term kidney health.
Normal urinary oxalate levels range between 40-130 mg/24 hours. Higher levels can indicate a risk of developing kidney stones, while lower levels might point to other metabolic issues.
For the 24 hr urinary oxalate test, you will be provided with a collection container by Diagnopein Diagnostic Center. You will need to collect all urine over a 24-hour period, starting from the second urination of the day and continuing until the first urination the next morning.
Your doctor may recommend a urinary oxalate test if you have a history of kidney stones, especially calcium oxalate stones, or if you are experiencing symptoms of kidney dysfunction. It can also help monitor conditions that affect oxalate levels.
