Methodology for Study of Isolated Perfused Rat Kidney in Vitro

  • Chapter
Renal Pharmacology

Abstract

The advantages of isolated perfused organs for biological study are several. Delivery and removal of substrates and products via normal vascular channels, and the absence of modifying effects from other organs are primary benefits. In the case of the kidney, a further advantage accrues from the fact that transport events transpire while the perfused tissue is being studied. For an organ in which the major energy expenditure is believed to be for transport (a process that occurs to only a limited extent in slices and not at all in homogenates), this is an important consideration.
