What would be found in the glomerular filtrate if the glomerular membrane were damaged?
protein
What would only be found in the glomerular filtrate if the glomerular membrane were damaged?
Protein
Is glomerular filtrate nearly protein free?
true or false
Why is albumin absent in urine?
Albumin is the single most abundant blood protein and is very important in maintaining the osmotic pressure of the blood. Besides that Albumin like othere blood proteins is to large to pass through the glomerular filtration membrane.
What happens during glomerular filtration of drugs?
The glomerulus filters are free or unbounded drugs (both ionized and non-ionized). No protein or blood cells should be able to pass through the glomeruli in normal circumstances. Only the free drug molecules are hence eliminated and the protein-bound drug molecules are returned to the systemic circulation.
What role does the lamina demsa play in the renal corpuscle?
The lamina densa is a component of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) in the renal corpuscle. It provides structural support and acts as a filtration barrier, preventing the passage of large molecules like proteins from the blood into the glomerular filtrate. It also helps maintain the integrity and function of the renal corpuscle by separating the glomerular endothelial cells and podocytes.
Why is there protein in the glomerular filtrate and urine?
The inflammation would increase the permeability of your glomeruli. This retraction of the epithelium will allow the larger protein molecules to go through the filtrate.
What is an abnormal high concentration of protein in urine called?
Hyperproteinuria is the term for an abnormal high concentration of protein in urine.
Is a protein osmosis?
No because osmosis is the diffusion of water where water with high concentration moves to water with low concentration, therefore it has nothing to do with protein.
How uric acid decrease?
If you need to decrease the uric acid in your blood, that is done by eating less protein. Uric acid is a byproduct of protein digestion.
How do you decrease your carbohydrates?
I was told my a dietician that I need to decrease my carb intake and increase protein
Would the concentration of a diluted protein shake with an absorbance value of 70mg ml be darker than a protein concentration of 15mg ml?
It would be darker... As the concentration gets stronger, it gets darker.
