SOUSA, C. A. Mãrcílio de; LESSA, Ines S.  and  LEBOREIRO, Odulia. Urine protein concentration in normal population. Rev. Saúde Pública [online]. 1973, vol.7, n.4, pp. 405-408. ISSN 0034-8910.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0034-89101973000400010.

In order to determinate the normal values for urine protein concentration in one sample of healthy population it was used a biuret reaction in 62 urine samples collected at random. The mean protein concentration in the whole group was 6.0mg% (SD ±3.2) with a range of 2.0 - 14.5mg%. Those results agreed with the previously reported, in the literature.
