Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Urinalysis is the physical, chemical, and microscopic examination of urine. It involves a number of tests to detect and measure various compounds that pass through the urine.

Detailed explanation-2: -A urinalysis is a simple test that looks at a small sample of your urine. It can help find problems that need treatment, including infections or kidney problems. It can also help find serious diseases in the early stages, like kidney disease, diabetes, or liver disease. A urinalysis is also called a “urine test.”

Detailed explanation-3: -Macroscopic examination targets parameters such as color, clarity, odor, and specific gravity; urine test strips measure chemical properties such as pH, glucose concentration, and protein levels; and microscopy is performed to identify elements such as cells, urinary casts, crystals, and organisms.

Detailed explanation-4: -Doctors often do a microscopic urinalysis as part of an overall urinalysis. After a urine (pee) sample is collected, it’s put into a centrifuge. This special machine separates the liquid in the pee from any solid components, such as blood cells, mineral crystals, or microorganisms.
