Objective: To determine the fraction of an ingested fluoride dose of 1 mg in 50 mL orange juice that is excreted through the urine (FUEF) of children aged 3-5 years. Methods: Eighty-eight controlled determinations involving ...

Aims To assess whether there was any significant difference in the average fractional urinary fluoride excretion (FUFE) values among adults consuming (NaF) fluoridated Ca-free water (reference water), naturally fluoridated ...

Copepods are important suppliers of bioreactive compounds for marine bacteria through fecal pellet production, sloppy feeding, and the excretion of dissolved compounds. However, the interaction between copepods and bacteria ...

Background/Aims: Previous studies reported that fractional clearance of urinary proteins is better than total proteinuria in predicting chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. However, the role of sodium in the fractional ...

Objective: To determine the fraction of an ingested fluoride dose of 1 mg in 50 mL orange juice that is excreted through the urine (FUEF) of children aged 3-5 years. Methods: Eighty-eight controlled determinations involving ...

Objectives: This study aimed to confirm a previously obtained value for the fractional urinary fluoride excretion (FUFE) over a 24-hour period in adults and to assess whether there are significant differences between FUFE ...

Urolithiasis is an important disease of lambs confined. The urine acidification, by ammonium chloride intake, is the preventive method most frequently employed. Due to the lack of specific information in sheep, this study ...

The role of zooplankton in microbial nitrogen turnover in marine environments is poorly understood. Here, we present results from two experiments designed to determine the excretion rate of ammonium and dissolved organic ...
