Other physical characteristics that can apply to urine include colour, turbidity (transparency), smell (odour), pH (acidity-alkalinity), and density. Colour: Typically yellow-amber but varies according to recent diet and the concentration of the urine.
Color and transparency are determined from visual observation of the sample. Normal urine is straw yellow to amber in color. Abnormal colors include bright yellow, brown, black (gray), red, and green. These pigments may result from medications, dietary sources, or diseases.
