How long does it take to get results from a urinalysis?

To do a urinalysis, a dipstick in dipped in the urine to test for certain chemicals--protein, sugar, ketones, etc. Then a sample of the urine is spun in a centrifuge for a few minutes and the sediment at the bottom of the test tube is looked at under a microscope. The whole process takes only a few minutes. However, if the urine is sent for a culture because infection is suspected, results will not be available for 1-3 days because it takes time to grow and identify any bacteria found.


Is a red top tube referred to as a serum separator tube?

Depends who you buy your red top tubes from, but mostly no. A serum seperator tube (SST) is usually yellow or gold top, it has a lump of clear gel in the bottom. When spun this gel ends up between the serum and red blood cellsmaking it easier to seperate the serum. A red top is generally a tube with nothing at all in it. So when spun you end up with serum and clotted red cells but nothing seperating them. Most other colour tubes contain an anti coagulant preventing the blood from clotting so when spun you end up with plasma and red cells. The important thing for most tests is the difference between serum and plasma, so a red top and an SST can generally be used for the same tests although SST is often prefered as its easier to work with.

This depends on what the yarn is made of. If it is spun from sugar, for example, then yes, it would dissolve in water. Commonly, yarn is made from animal hair or botany. You could dissolve these yarns in an acid.

What is the time and speed to centrifuge urine?

Urine should be spun at a slow speed. Most centrifuges have a radial arm of ~14.5 cm and should be spun at ~1,500 rpm (with a range of 1,000−2,000 rpm) for ~5 minutes (with a range of 3-5 minutes, longer time for slower speeds). Centrifuging the urine at too high of a speed or for a prolonged amount of time can cause artifacts such as cell rupture and cast fragmentation.
