Renal regulation of electrolyte and acid-base balance in ruminants.
The kidney maintains volume, electrolyte, and acid-base homeostasis. These functions are examined in the ruminant in response to differing dietary intakes and disease states. The consequences of renal disease for these homeostatic processes and the interpretation of urinary excretion data are reviewed.
