Brief Answer: It is normal(noral values are less than 30) Detailed Answer: Hi and thank you so much for this query. Microalbumin is a protein that is found in urine. Values less than 30 are considered normal. Persons with values greater than 30 may signify damage t the kidneys caused by high blood pressure of diabetes.
