Bilirubin is primarily a product of the breakdown of red blood cells by the liver. Elevated bilirubin in urine causes include a malfunction of the liver-resulting in the kidneys performing the filtration responsibilities and therefore causing the bilirubin to be removed through the urine.
Bilirubin is a yellowish pigment found in bile, a fluid produced by the liver. This article discusses the laboratory test done to measure bilirubin in the blood. Total and direct bilirubin are usually measured to screen for or to monitor liver or gallbladder problems. Large amounts of bilirubin in the body can lead to jaundice.
