Table 9. Inflow to the entry to the tubes.
Fv | [Sodium] | [Urea] | [NRS] | [Total Ammonia] | Osmolality | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
DL | 10 | 137 | 10 | 1 | 1.7 | 264 |
DVR | 11 | 139.46 | 5 | 5 | 0.1 | 264 |
Initial concentrations and volume flows Fv at the entry to the short and long descending limbs (DL) and vasa recta. Volume flow in nL/min, concentration in mM, osmolality in mosm/Kg H2O. Sodium concentration is calculated to ensure that osmolality equals 264 at the entry to the descending tubules (activity coefficient 1.82) [17].
