- Reference notes
- Magnesium: Magnesium concentrations in stool water above the normal levels of 0.7-1.2 mg/mL have been indicative of surreptitious abuse of magnesium containing laxatives. NMS Labs calculated normal: Approximately 0.5-10 mg/g (based on the reported range of magnesium eliminated per day in stool and the range of stool mass per day in adults). Not for clinical diagnostic purposes. Phosphorus: Phosphorus concentrations in stool water averaged 1.8 +/- 0.3 mg/mL (ranged from 0.3-4.2 mg/mL) following administration of 105 mmol of sodium phosphate. NMS Labs calculated normal: Approximately 1.4-2.2 mg/g (based on the reported range of phosphorus eliminated per day in stool and the range of stool mass per day in adults). Not for clinical diagnostic purposes.

We compile this page from named laboratory catalogs, guidelines and studies. Labs calculate reference intervals from the people they test, for one assay method and one population group, so an interval describes that population rather than an optimal target.
