Urinary organic anion excretion in response to dietary acid and base loading.
RK Packer, CA Curry, KM Brown - Journal of the American Society …, 1995 - journals.lww.com
Animals eating a base-loaded or base-forming diet excrete urine containing large amounts
of organic anions (OA). Although citrate is the only OA previously identified as being
excreted in appreciable amounts during base loading, citrate excretion accounts for only
part of total OA excretion. The objectives of this study were to identify other OA excreted by
rats and to see how their excretion changed in response to moderate (8 micro Eq/g per day)
and heavy (30 micro Eq/g per day) loads of NaHCO3 and NH4Cl. Urinary OA were identified …
