Urine: Encyclopedia - Urinal

A urinal is a specialized toilet designed to be used only for urination, not defecation, and almost always by a standing male. Advantages over a full-function toilet include: it is smaller, uses much less water, and the regular version is for regular adults at a convenient higher height. It often contains a urinal cake contained within a plastic mesh guard container or a plastic mesh guard without a urinal cake. The plastic mesh guard is designed to prevent solid objects such as cigarette butts or paper from being flus ...

Urine: Encyclopedia - Urine
Urine is liquid waste excreted by the kidneys and is produced by the process of filtration. This waste is eventually expelled from the body in a process known as urination. Most commonly the excretion of urine serves for flushing waste molecules collected from the blood by the kidneys, and for the homeostasis of the body liquids; however, many species also use it for olfactory communication. Urine and urination have many slang names, including "wee". Urine - Composition. Urine is a transparent soluti ...

Urine: Encyclopedia - Urination

Urination, also called micturition, is the process of disposing urine from the urinary bladder through the urethra to the outside of the body. The process of urination is usually under voluntary control. When control over urination is lost or absent, this is called urinary incontinence. Urination - Urinary System.

Urine: Encyclopedia II - Urine - Other uses

Aztec physicians used urine to clean external wounds to prevent infection, and administered it as a drink to relieve stomach and intestine problems. The ancient Romans used urine as a bleaching agent for cleaning clothes and even isolated reports as a teeth whitener (supposedly originating in what is now Spain). In Siberia, to communicate with the spirits, the Koryak people drank the urine of another who has consumed fly agaric (an entheogenic mushroom that is occasionally fatally poisonous), or of one who has in turn drunk uri ...

Urine: Encyclopedia - Urine therapy

Urine therapy is a specialized branch of alternative medicine. Any sort of oral or external application of human urine for medicinal purposes falls into this category.

The psychoactive alkaloids of the mushroom are passed unchanged in human urine, leading to ...

Urine: Encyclopedia - Urinal deodorizer block

A urinal deodorizer block is the chemical disinfectant blocks found in urinals. Other informal terms include "urinal mint", "urinal cake," or "trough lolly."

They are air-activated and slowly evaporate when in contact with the air. They are usually round, about three inches in diameter, an inch thick, and weigh 3–4 ounces when new. This shape is the source of th ...

Urine: Encyclopedia - Camel cigarette

Camel is a brand of cigarettes introduced by R.J. Reynolds Tobacco (RJR) in 1913. Camels contain a blend of Turkish and American tobacco. Camel cigarettes were blended to be considerably easier to smoke in contrast to the much harsher brands popular at the time of its introduction. In addition, they were promoted, prior to official release, by a careful advertising campaign that included "teasers" which merely stated that "the Camels are coming." This marketing style was, in fact, a prototype for attempts to sway public opinion that coincided ...

Urine: Encyclopedia II - Urinal - Urinals for women

Nearly all urinals are intended for use by males, but a few have been designed for use by women. From 1950 to 1973, the American Standard company offered the mass-produced "Sanistand." It did not provide significant advantages over conventional toilets, because it used just as much floor space and flushing water. Its main selling point was that women could use the fixture without touching it. Several other designs have been tried since then, but they either required the user to hover awkwardly or to bring her genitals into close contac ...

Urine: Encyclopedia - Urethral sphincter

In mammals the flow of urine from the urinary bladder is controlled by a group of muscles collectively called the urethral sphincter, named for their proximity to the urethra. Both sexes have at least two areas of muscle: the internal sphincter, or bladder neck; and the external, or distal, sphincter. In males the internal and external urethral sphincters are more powerful, able to retain urine for twice as long as females, and are furthermore backed up by the tertiary ri ...
