  • Title: Alkalosis and renal excretion of ammonia by rat kidney.
    Author: Solomon S.
    Journal: Experientia; 1988 May 15; 44(5):453-5. PubMed ID: 2836235.
    Abstract:
    Upon sulfate administration, UpH falls more in alkalotic rats than in controls. Alkalosis can lead to a reduction in UNH3 V at highly acidic urine. The significance of this process is doubtful at UpH ranging from about 6 to 7. At lower UpH less NH3 would be excreted, thereby less H+ would be trapped in urine and some acid would be conserved.
