Formed elements more stable
, Random specimen Used for most routine urinalysis
Timed specimen Usually for 24 hours
Measures things with circadian variation such as
hormones, creatinine clearance, GFR
Routine void technique Acceptable for routine urinalysis
Midstream technique Ideal, best used for urine culture
Reduces possibility of contamination
Pediatric technique Use plastic collection bags with skin adhesive
Check every 15 minutes
Many possible sources of contamination
Suprapubic aspiration For bug cultures, especially anaerobes
Also for infants when contamination not an option
Routine Collection container Clear plastic, disposable, leak-proof, 50-100 mL
Midstream Collection container Disposable, sterile, individually packaged
24-hour Collection container Brown-opaque plastic, 3000 mL with preservatives
(i.e. HCl)
Random specimen preservation Fridge up to 24 hours
Do not fridge if testing within 2 hours (amorphous
