Talk:Urine
From Academic Kids
The definition for Urine reads, "Accelerator for Compost." If you have ever noticed that the dog's urine bush dies, it is due to the anti-microbial action in urine. This is part of the reason it is sterile (it is fresh pressed from blood!) A suggested change: 'Accelerator for Compost once it is aged for three days.'
NB: the three days is what I have been told, and would like to confirm!
FURTHERMORE, I will come out of the closet and propose inserting information about Urine Therapy (using urine for treating bug bites, skin lesions, mouthwash, toothpaste, daily ingested vitamin and hormone supplement . . . ) Z redsquare@latinmail.com
Ammonium smell
Isn't it ammonia (NH3) instead of ammonium ions (NH4+) that make (old) urine smell? And isn't it microorganisms that create ammonia from ureum, especially some time after the urine left the body? I didn't dare to change the current text that explicitly says that it hasn't anything to do with germs. Hankwang 16:34, 29 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Reverted what looks like vandalism.... In any case it seems unsuitable for an encyclopedia article. Went from 65.99.136.11's revisions back to Duncharris'. -Jen Moakler 04:03, 28 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Blood in the urine?
the article mentions sugar in urine, what about blood? indicates liver problems? (clem 19:03, 4 May 2005 (UTC))
- hehe, must contaminate my urine samples with sugar and a little blood to prank my doctors! (I think I heard in some context that ppl tried that, not sure what it was though) (clem 00:01, 5 May 2005 (UTC))
