Background: Urinalysis is an important component in the assessment of acute kidney injury (AKI). Proteonomics is a rapidly developing approach in the analysis of physiological states. Several techniques have been developed to screen for protein populations. In this regard SELDI-TOF is a technique based on mass spectroscopy that is being utilized in proteonomics research.
Methods:For this study, clean catch or catheterized urine was collected from normals (n=18) and patients referred to the renal service with AKI. Based upon urine and serum chemistries, clinical parameters, and microscopic urinalysis, the urines were separated into those consistent with prerenal azotemia (n=17) and acute …

Urine SELDI spectra from patients with prerenal azotemia (PRE, lower panels) and acute tubular necrosis (ATN, upper panels) contrasted over ranges between 1.1 and 1.5 KD (left panels) and 2 and 5 KD (right panels).
