Abstract
The renal clearance of inulin (ClIN) was measured in anaesthetized male rats using a continuous intravenous infusion method.ClIN was independent of urine flow rate provided this was greater than 0.03 ml/minute.At flow rates lower than this, CIIN was reduced and appeared to correlate with the rate of flow.In experiments where a constant kidney function is required. e.g., pharmacokinetic studies, it is advisable to maintain urine, flow rates in the rat above 0.03 ml/minute.Entities:
