[The significance of transcellular transport kinetics of urea and creatinine for haemodialysis (author's transl)]. 1981

E Zimmermann, and E Pölz

Transport kinetics of urea and creatinine across the cell wall was investigated on the model of azotaemic erythrocytes. Urea was found to pass rapidly across the cell membrane whilst the transport of creatinine is delayed to a calculated half time of approximately 12 minutes. Transport of metabolites play an important role in dialysis efficacy. the significance of transcellular transport kinetics of different molecules with respect to dialysis strategy is discussed.

D014508 Urea A compound formed in the liver from ammonia produced by the deamination of amino acids. It is the principal end product of protein catabolism and constitutes about one half of the total urinary solids. Basodexan,Carbamide,Carmol
D014511 Uremia A clinical syndrome associated with the retention of renal waste products or uremic toxins in the blood. It is usually the result of RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. Most uremic toxins are end products of protein or nitrogen CATABOLISM, such as UREA or CREATININE. Severe uremia can lead to multiple organ dysfunctions with a constellation of symptoms. Uremias
