Document Summary

System physiology notes: renal system- gfr starling forces (day 1) Filtered load = excreted load (provided no excretion by the tubules aka manipulations by nephron) Rate of delivery = plasma concentration of solvent * renal plasma flow rate. Filtered load = glumeral flow rate * plasma concentration of the solvent. Quantity of deposit (arrow at bottom of figure) = urinary concentration. Amount excreted in urine = amount secreted by tubule + amount reabsorbed by tubule + amount filtered by the glomerular capillary* *the last part is just everything not taken in by the tubule that stays in the normal pathway and is filtered. Glomerular filtration rate (gfr) = arterial plasma clearance of solvent. Inulin is not reabsorbed into the body, so it is the perfect gfr determiner. Therefore, if the concentration of inulin is doubled, the excretion is also double. Table 34. 1: for a substance to measure glomerular filtration rate, the. 1) substance must be freely filterable in the glomeruli.
