I am trying to do a renal extraction calculation under highly non-steady
state conditions, and so I'd like to know very roughly how long the time
interval is from passive filtration to urination in the rat (obscure I
know). Presumably this will differ with water intake, eg between night
and
day. Also, can anyone point me to a good source reference for the
glomerular filtration rate of rats (preferably with comparative values
for
other non-human species)?
Thanks very much,
Kim Travis
