Dried Blood Spot Test Estimation of Urea [PDF]
Annals of Clinical Biochemistry: International Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 1985 The analysis of urea in serum and whole blood samples dried onto filter paper has been investigated. In both cases the sample volume is not critical nor is the volume of sample applied to the filter paper if sample discs of consistent dimensions can be punched from the dried paper. The method must be calibrated by a serum-based material not an aqueous
