This study was undertaken to investigate incidence of urine abnormalities among asymptomatic schoolboys in Alkadaru area, Khartoum-north during October 2002.

Random urine samples (RUS) were collected from 103 schoolboys, their ages ranged between (6-14) years; average age was (9.2 ± 1.9) years.

Analysis included physical, chemical and microscopic examinations.

Physical examinations (visual inspection of urine appearance) showed that the majority of samples (81.6 %) were amber yellow, and (18.4 %) found to be turbid.

Gross hematuria was not observed among samples.

Turbid urine samples were only found in age classes (6-8) and (9-11) years (9.7 % and 8.7 %) respectively of the samples. In the chemical examinations, proteinuria was the major abnormal urine constituent reported among schoolchildren.

Significant proteinuria (>10 mg / dl) reported in (11.7) % of samples; the highest concentration of urine protein was observed in age group of (9-11) years, (Mean : 265 mg / dl, SE ± 52.43 mg / dl).

The incidence of hematuria (> 0.015 Hb mg / dl ; corresponds to > 10 erythrocytes / µl) is reported as (2.9 %).

Highest concentration of blood in urine samples was reported in age group (12-14) years ; (Mean : 0.375 Hb mg / dl, SE ± 0.11).

The urine samples were negative for glucose and ketone tests.

The majority of samples (95.1 %) were of normal pH, but 4 % were alkaline (pH > 8.0) and 1 % was acidic (pH < 4.5).

higher pH values recorded in age group (6–8) years. Microscopic examinations of urine samples indicated that the majority of samples (96.1 %) were clear of cellular deposits.

Abnormal deposits of cells observed were red cells alone (< 5 / HPF) in two samples (1.9 %) ; epithelial cells (< 5 / HPF) in one sample (1.0 %) ; and another one (1.0 %) contained both red and pus cells (> 5 / HPF).

Parasites and cellular cast deposits were not detected in samples.

Crystals of calcium oxalate and amorphous urates were recorded in (13.6 % and 6.8 %( of the samples, respectively.
