Abstract:SummaryThe relationship between urinary pH, titratable acid (T.A.) and inorganic phosphorus (I.P.) excretion was examined in a group of 81 hospital out‐patients and some normal volunteers, who presented for one‐day renal function testing. Although the patients had a variety of renal diseases, with glomerular filtration rates ranging from 7 to 146 ml. per minute per 1·73 sq. m., a strictly linear relationship was found between the “ratio of urinary T.A. over urinary I.P.” and urinary pH, expressed by the follow… Show more
“…The main buffering anions in urine are phosphate, creatiriine and uric acid (Gyory et al 1968 I . The pK,,for creatinine is about 4.7 and that for uric acid pK,, is about 5.8. which means that their buffering properties are very slight at the intratubular pH measured here.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
