Microalbumin (mg/dL): Microalbuminuria is defined as a urine albumin level between 30–300 mg/dL. A level greater than 30 mg/dL suggests early kidney damage, often related to conditions like diabetes and hypertension.
Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio (ACR): This ratio is used to assess microalbuminuria in relation to creatinine levels. An ACR of 30–300 mg/g indicates microalbuminuria, while levels above 300 mg/g suggest macroalbuminuria or more severe kidney damage.
24-Hour Urinary Albumin Excretion (UAE): A 24-hour urine collection may be used to assess albumin levels over a day. Values above 30 mg/24 hours are indicative of microalbuminuria.
