Abstract

Treatment with the co-transport inhibitor, furosemide decreased36Cl flux across perfused Malpighian tubules ofLocusta. However, exclusion of36Cl from the bathing medium had not effect on22Na+ flux whereas substitution of bathing medium Na+ by K+ increased36Cl flux. Diuretic extract of corpora cardiaca increased22Na+ (by 106%) and36Cl (by 335%) fluxes differentially.
