Excerpt from Handbook of Uroscopy: From Notes Taken in the Laboratory of Jo H. Lindsley, M. D
The Urine is the typical excretion of the body. It is the product of change of animal tissue, and is excreted from the Malpighian bodies and convoluted tubes of the kidney. The kidneys have nothing to do themselves with the forma tion of the urinary principle; they simply purify the blood by separating the effete matters, and the urine is simply a solution of urea and chloride of sodium with more or less of the organic and inorganic constituents of the blood.
If normal urine is allowed to stand uncovered for a while, a small cloud of mucus sinks to the bottom of the vessel.
