In vivo determination of body composition by tritium dilution in the rat.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Total body water was determined in vivo by tritium dilution in thirty-two male and female rats. Body water obtained by tritium dilution and body fat calculated from this value correlated significantly with body water and fat obtained by analysis (r 0.985, 0.855 respectively). There was no significant difference between values for fat assessed by the direct and indirect methods.

Total body water (TBW) determination by tritium space could be factitiously elevated by exchangeable H+ contained within water-soluble chemical configurations. Should this nonaqueous (molecular) exchangeable H+ turn out to be a large fraction of total exchangeable H+, TBW measurement by tritiated water (THO) dilution would display a systematic upward and non-random error. TBW was measured by TH...
متن کاملThe Volume of Distribution of Sodium Thiosulfate
The importance of total body fluid and electrolytes and their distribution in the body cell mass has been increasingly emphasized in the care of acutely and chronically ill patients. In order to determine distribution of water and electrolytes, a convenient and accurate technique for the estimation of the extracellular fluid space is essential. Moore (1) has demonstrated that the chemical disse...
متن کاملIsotope dilution spaces of mice injected simultaneously with deuterium, tritium and oxygen-18.
The isotope dilution technique for measuring total body water (TBW), and the doubly labelled water (DLW) method for measuring energy expenditure, are both sensitive to small variations in the ratio of the hydrogen to oxygen-18 dilution space. Since the dilution space ratio varies between individuals, there has been much recent debate over what causes this variability (i.e. physiological differe...

The purpose of this study was to develop a sensitive and fast microdialysis coupled with high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for determination of 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furaldehyde (5-HMF) in free-moving rats after i.g. administration of the aqueous extract of crud Fructus corni and its processed products of jiuzheng pin (JZP). The concentration of 5-HMF in free-movi...
