Figure 4. Effects of increasing maleate and glycerol dosages in ‘juvenile’ mice on the severity of ARF.
Left panel: Increasing maleate from 600 to 800 mg/Kg failed to induce azotemia in ‘juvenile’ mice. At 1000 mg/Kg, toxicity was apparent, but it was significantly less than that observed in ‘mature’ mice at a 600 mg/Kg maleate dosage. Right panel: Increasing glycerol dosage from 9 to 12 mg/Kg in ‘juvenile’ mice induced azotemia, but it was significantly less than that observed in ‘mature’ mice (n, 5-10 / group).
