Proteinuria is defined as the temporary or continuous detection of proteins in the urine, which exceeds an amount of 150-200 mg per 24 h, using a base of urine production of 1,500 ml a day. Regular protein excretion consists of approximately 30 % globulins, 30 % albumin, and 40 % of other proteins, especially Tamm-Horsfall glycoprotein (uromodulin, excreted primarily by the kidney).
