Abstract
We have investigated the effect of urine pH on the simple solubility test for myoglobinuria and found that the sensitivity of the test is very pH dependent. As much as a 10 fold increase in sensitivity can be obtained if the test is performed at pH 7.5 instead of pH 5.5. As such, we recommend that the urine pH should first be adjusted within the range 7.5--8.0 before performing the solubility test for myoglobinuria.
