The effect of ketone bodies on renal ammoniogenesis
Lemieux, Guy, Vinay, Patrick, Robitaille, Pierre, Plante, Gérard E., Lussier, Yolande, Martin, Pierre
Infusion of ketone bodies to ammonium chloride-loaded acidotic dogs was found to induce significant reduction in urinary excretion of ammonia. This effect could not be attributed to urinary pH...
