Uric Acid Test Overview

A uric acid test is a diagnostic test that measures the amounts of uric acid in the blood. A simple blood test is used to determine uric acid levels. The blood sample is collected from the vein on the inner side of the arm. 

It is often assessed in patients undergoing chemotherapy or radiation therapy. It is also used to determine the source of recurring kidney stones and to diagnose gout.

Uric acid test price varies by location. It can range from INR 70 to INR 500 in most cities.

Gout may result from uric acid crystals developing inside your joints as a result of hyperuricemia. You may be more susceptible to developing kidney stones if your uric acid level is high. Additionally, hyperuricemia can aggravate chronic renal disease if it already exists or raises the chance of its development.

Why is Uric Acid Serum Test Done?

This test is frequently used to identify gout in patients with chronic renal illness and as a follow-up examination. It is also examined in cancer patients and those taking cytotoxic medications.

A buildup of uric acid in the joints can result in gout, which can cause swelling in joints like the knee, ankles, toes, and fingers.

Frequently Asked Questions

By the breakdown of purines uric acid is produced. Purines are nitrogen-containing compounds found within the cells of the body, including our DNA. The level of uric acid in the blood or urine is measured this test. If an excessive amount of acid is produced or not enough is removed, it can accumulate within the body, causing increased levels within the blood (hyperuricemia). The presence of excess acid can cause gout, a condition characterized by inflammation of the joints because of the formation of acid crystals within the joint (synovial) fluid. Excess acid also gets deposited in tissues like the kidney, resulting in kidney stones or renal failure. As cells get old and die, they break down, releasing purines into the blood. To a lesser extent, purines may come from the digestion of certain foods, like liver, anchovies, mackerel, dried beans and peas and certain alcoholic drinks, primarily beer. Most acid is removed from the body by the kidneys and is eliminated from the body through urine, with the rest eliminated via stool.
