The topics covered include renal structure;\nglomerular ultrafiltration; tubular transport of inorganic ions, organic\nsubstances, and fluid; and urine dilution and concentration.\nMammalian renal function is only considered for purposes of comparison with\nnonmammalian renal function and as a frame of reference for some of the\ndiscussions. The major findings on nonmammalian renal functionand the\nimportant unanswered questions raised by those findings are described in detail.\nAs such, the book provides comprehensive information on comparative renal function\nfor biological scientists and advanced students of biology with some knowledge\nof physiology and a desire to know more about renal function in vertebrates,\nand for mammalian renal physiologists who wish to obtain a broader view of\nrenal function.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2018-05-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781493981236\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4939-3734-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 292\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44775528857740,"sku":"9781493981236","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781493981236.jpg?v=1776024270","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781493981236","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
