    Abstract:
    In 11 controls and 10 patients suffering from untreated uraemic acidosis intracellular bicarbonate and skeletal muscle pH (needle biopsy) were determined. In all patients a significant intracellular acidosis, not related to any extracellular indices was found. It is concluded that the chronic proton load is able to effect intracellular buffer composition; moreover the action of other factors such as derangements of cell metabolism and nutritional imbalance could be operating.
