Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN)
Explanation: Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) is a measure of urea, a waste product formed when the liver breaks down protein. The kidneys filter urea out of the blood and remove it through urine. BUN levels help assess how well the kidneys and liver are working.
Test purpose: A BUN test is used to evaluate kidney function, hydration status, and liver health. It also evaluate protein intake and metabolism.
