Plant hormone. Plant hormones (also known as phytohormones) are chemicals that regulate plant growth. In the United Kingdom, these are termed 'plant growth substances'. Plant hormones are signal molecules produced within the plant, and occur in extremely low concentrations.
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results. In random urine specimens, normal urinary albumin excretion is <17 mg/g creatinine for males and <25 mg/g creatinine for females.(2) Microalbuminuria is defined as an albumin/creatinine ratio of 17 to 299 for males and 25 to 299 for females. A ratio of albumin/creatinine of > or =300 is indicative of overt proteinuria.
The normal range for Beta 2 micro globulin in a test is extremely low. If there is no detection in a urine test, it is assumed that the level of Beta 2 micro globulin is within the safe range. For blood tests, this safe range is between 1 and 4 mg/ml in a healthy individual.
