Small substances such as urea and creatinine are filtered by the nephrons but are not completely reabsorbed. However, one specific small substance that is generally not reabsorbed by the nephrons is inulin, a fructose polysaccharide used to measure renal clearance. Inulin is freely filtered at the glomerulus and is not secreted or reabsorbed by the renal tubules, making it a useful marker for assessing kidney function.
