A Blood Urea Nitrogen test (BUN) is performed to assess how well your kidneys are functioning, specifically how well it is filtering waste and removing it from the body. The test works by measuring the levels of urea nitrogen in the blood. It is a waste material that the liver produces when it breaks down protein.
