Microgiobulinin Urine : Not Suitable for Assessing Renal TubularFunction

چکیده
0.72x + 8.35 and correlation coefficient r = 0.999. This means that there is absolutely no indication of a different affinity of inhibitor to substrate, or of a greater degree of dissociation of the enzyme-inhibitor complex. In fact, the gradual increase in the reaction rate after 10 mm, as observed by Huang and Tietz in their assay in the presence ofinhibitor, might be a reflection of the lower inhibitor concentration they used. Nevertheless, the introduction of a linear standard curve by Huang and Tietz certainly adds to the attractiveness of the method of isoamylase determination by selective inhibition.

Assessment of renal concentrating ability.
Maximum urine osmolality was measured during a 24-hour control period in normal ambulant and working subjects and hospital inpatients and compared with that achieved after intramuscular injection of 4 microgram desamino-cys-1-8-D-arginine vasopressin (DDAVP). Most of the normal subjects passed maximally concentrated urine at some time during the control period. The results suggest that in less ...
متن کاملUrine Cytology: Useful Screening Method for Polyoma Virus Nephropathy in Renal Transplant Patients
Polyoma virus nephropathy occurs in 3% to 4% of renal transplant recipients, causing graft loss in 50% of cases. The objective of the present study was to explore the effects of age, sex, post-transplantation period and plasma creatinine levels on the polyoma virus infection in kidney transplanted patients. Urine samples were collected from 362 patients, centrifuged and microscopic slides prepa...
متن کاملRenal Hypoplasia in a Calf
Renal hypoplasia refers to a congenitally small kidney where there is essentially normal residual parenchyma but smaller calyces, lobules, and papillae. This anomaly can be divided into two broad groups: complete (global) renal hypoplasia and segmental renal hypoplasia. In this study, a 3 days-old simmental calf was diagnosed with renal hypoplasia and unreconstructed exstrophic bladder. It pres...
متن کاملThe effect of borage tea on urine and blood biochemistry on non-dialysis chronic renal failure patients
Background: There is no curative treatment for chronic renal failure (CRF). Important strategies for the control and prevention of the advancement of CRF are increased renal function and decreased blood pressure (BP) and weight. Borage has many benefits, such as increased frequency of urination, decreased BP, and increased renal function. This clinical trial study was designed to determine the ...
متن کاملAqueous extract of Berberis integerrima root improves renal dysfunction in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats
Objective: Barberry root extract contains various alkaloids that are considered as antioxidants. Beneficial effect of aqueous extract of Berberis integerrima root (AEBIR) was evaluated for renal function in diabetic rats induced by STZ. Material and Methods: Diabetes was induced by i.p. injection of streptozotocin (65 mg/kg bw) to rats, after 15 h of fasting. Diabetic rats were randomly grouped...
