The response of renal cortical adenine nucleotides to different flush-out solutions

  • Published:
Irish Journal of Medical Science Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Changes in energy metabolism of canine renal cortex were investigated immediately after nephrectomy and following flushout with two solutions. Even a brief period of ischaemic produced a sharp fall in adenine nucleotide concentration: further fall was prevented by flushout with cold Ringer’s solution and some restoration of nucleotides was achieved by flushing with a modified Collins’ solution.
