abstract background: sodium bicarbonate serum therapy is used for compensation bicarbonate lost and increasing blood ph in metabolic acidosis caused by severe anemia in patient with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (g6pd) deficiency. the aim of present study was comparison the effect of serum therapy using two different serums (serum with bicarbonate and without bicarbonate) on some renal and ...

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of different dietary levels of sodium in diets with and without sodium chloride on mineral metabolism, including blood electrolyte levels and tibia mineralization parameters, in young turkeys (to six weeks of age). The influence of diets with a low (L), medium (M) and high (H) sodium content, at 0.34, 1.34 and 2.82 g/kg respectively, was c...

matricaria chamomilla is a medicinal plant that is widely cultivated in salt affected soils. this investigation was undertaken to study the effect of nacl concentration on germination, and the physiological, biochemical and growth characteristics of chamomile. seed germination and growth were studied at five nacl concentration levels (0, 40, 80, 120 and 190 mm nacl concentration). increasing th...

Rabbit medullary collecting duct (MCD) acidification has been demonstrated to occur by means of a sodium-independent, aldosterone-stimulated mechanism. We have examined the anionic dependence of this process by means of the isolated perfused tubule technique. Total replacement of perfusate chloride with gluconate enhanced tubular bicarbonate reabsorption (JHCO3), from a basal rate of 10.7 +/- 1...

PURPOSE Cultured bovine lens epithelial cells (BLECs) exposed to sodium hypertonicity respond with an accumulation of intracellular myo-inositol. Using BLECs initially maintained at hypertonicity and reacting to a decrease in medium osmolality, a mechanism for the tonicity-activated release of myo-inositol was recognized. Alternatively, BLECs acclimated to sodium hypertonicity and subsequently ...

A more complete study of ionic concentrations and fluxes in the giant internodal cells of Nitella translucens has been made. The vacuolar concentrations were 76 mM K and 170 mM C1. The content of the chloroplast layer was 135 m#moles K/cm 2 and 215 m/~moles C1/cm2; in a layer 9 # thick these correspond to concentrations of 150 mM K and 240 rn~ C1. Such a high level of chloride requires active t...

Each of the three major bile acids of man was tested for its influence on electrolyte and water absorption in the human colon. Transport from isotonic solutions, with or without added bile acids, was compared in 35 studies on 20 healthy volunteers by colonic perfusions under steady-state conditions. Electrolytes and water were always absorbed from control solutions, but dihydroxy bile acid solu...

STONER, L. C., M. B. BURG, AND J. ORLOFF. Ion transport in cortical collecting tubule; effect of amiloride. Am. J. Physiol. 227(2) : 453-459. 1974.-T b 1 u u es were dissected from rabbit kidneys and perfused in vitro. In cortical collecting tubules the transepithelial electrical potential difference (PD) was 35 mV (lumen negative). There was net active sodium reabsorption from the lumen and ne...

To investigate the influence of salinity and calcium (Ca) on some properties of Plantago ovata, a pot factorialexperiment based on randomized complete block design with three replicates was conducted in Jiroft, south of KermanProvince, Iran. Three salinity levels of 0, 100 and 200 mM NaCl and Ca levels of 0, 5 and 10 mM Calcium nitrate wereapplied as the first and second factors, respectively. ...
