Development of Artificial Urine Using Commonly Available Ingredients for Ultraviolet–Visible Spectroscopy

Abstract

A simple urine phantom was developed to replicate the ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) spectrum of healthy human urine. Made from four safe and widely available ingredients, it addresses the challenges of biological samples, including safety risks and storage issues. The spectroscopic analysis results confirmed strong similarity to natural urine, making the phantom appropriate for testing spectroscopic methods, calibrating optical devices, and evaluating diagnostic sensors. It can also serve as a starting point for advanced phantoms tailored to specific patient needs or diseases. This reliable alternative facilitates research in optical diagnostics or biosensor development by simplifying preliminary sensor testing.
