title: [Amino acid loss and protein spectrum of the peritoneal dialysate during continuous peritoneal dialysis].
abstract: The loss of amino acids and the protein spectrum in the dialysate during continuous peritoneal dialysis were evaluated in 6 patients with normal kidney function in the context of a study on psoriasis therapy. On the 10th day the protein loss was lower than on the 1st day of therapy. The total loss of amino acids was only 0.6 g/day with a dialysate volume of 6 1/24 h and was thus lower than the losses quoted in the literature for an exchange volume of 10 1/24 h. As a whole the loss of amino acids apparently plays only a subordinate role as an influencing factor on protein metabolism in continuous peritoneal dialysis.
