Resumo

The evaluation of the serum renal biochemical profile is a methodology routinely used, often in conjunction with other tests, such as urinalysis and ultrasound, to assess the urinary system. Through this is possible to make the diagnosis of kidney diseases, as well as monitor the progression of the established treatments. The aim of the present study is to review the literature on urinary biochemistry for the diagnosis of renal disorders, through the assessment of different renal markers. In the present work, a descriptive analytical study was carried out, developed through bibliographic research, using the analysis of books, magazines, specialized publications and articles, dated since January 2010. For this purpose, digital tools were used, such as PubVet, Google Scholar, Capes Journals, Scielo and Science direct. It was concluded that the creatinine and urea biomarkers are still the most used in the veterinary clinical routine. SDMA is a new biomarker earlier than creatinine and urea, which has been showing good results in the diagnosis of acute kidney disease and chronic kidney disease.
