The Potassium Random Urine test: Potassium is one of the important essential body electrolytes along with sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, etc. As an electrolyte, potassium helps to regulate the number of fluids present in the body and to maintain a correct pH balance.Potassium plays a vital role in cellular metabolism. It also regulates the transportation of nutrients and waste products in and out of the cells. This is also essential for muscle activity.The main important source of potassium for the body is dietary sources. The amount of potassium required by the body is absorbed, and the remaining unabsorbed potassium will be excreted by the kidneys. Aldosterone acts on the nephrons in the kidneys and activates a sodium-potassium pump, which helps the body to reabsorb sodium and excrete potassium. This helps to balance the potassium concentration in the blood within its normal range.
