Defination / Uses

To estimate the anion gap, it's necessary to measure electrolyte situations in the urine.

It's the difference between the measured cations and anions, which in this case is deduction of the attention of chloride ions from those of sodium and potassium.

The urine anion gap is a measure used in the discriminational opinion of metabolic acidosis to determine whether the feathers are able of meetly excreting acid. The urine anion gap represents the unmeasured ions in urine.

Ammonium (NH ₄ ⁺) is the most important form of acid excretion from the order. It's delicate to measure directly, but it's generally accompanied by the chloride anion.
