title: Fractional extracellular space and fractional water content of various rat tissues at different extracellular pH values and in uremia.
abstract: At different extracellular pH values fractional extracellular space (calculated from the distribution of 3H inulin) and fractional water content showed no significant differences. 72 h after nephrectomy both variables increased significantly. An exception to this was brain, where fractional extracellular space decreased and total intracellular water increased as a sign of brain oedema.
