What is the relationship between serum calcium and phosphate?
Serum calcium and phosphate levels are inversely related, meaning when calcium levels decrease, phosphate levels tend to increase, and vice versa. Imbalances in the levels of these minerals can lead to various health conditions such as hypocalcemia or hyperphosphatemia. The body tightly regulates the balance between calcium and phosphate to maintain proper bone health and cellular function.
What is negative feedback interaction between calcitonin and parathyroid hormone?
The parathyroid gland is the major regulator of blood Ca levels. When the Ca levels in the blood decrease, the parathyroid gland releases more parathyroid hormone. This in turn increases osteoclasts which results in more bone breakdown. this releases more Ca into the blood stream. When Ca levels in the blood increase the thyroid gland releases Calcitonin. this decreases the activity of the osteoclasts which in turn decrease the levels of Ca in the blood.
What foods help increase phosphate in the blood?
Foods high in phosphorus such as dairy products, meat, fish, nuts, and legumes can help increase phosphate levels in the blood. Additionally, including whole grains, seeds, and dark green vegetables in your diet can also contribute to raising phosphate levels. Consulting with a healthcare provider or a dietitian is recommended to determine the appropriate dietary changes for your specific needs.
What is the function of phosphate granules?
Phosphate granules store excess phosphate in bacterial cells. This allows bacteria to regulate intracellular phosphate levels and use them during times of phosphate scarcity.
What does it mean to have phosphate in urine?
Having phosphate in urine is a normal occurrence as the kidneys help regulate the phosphate levels in the body. However, abnormally high levels of phosphate in urine could be a sign of certain health conditions such as kidney disease, hormonal imbalances, or excessive dietary intake of phosphate. Consulting a healthcare provider for further evaluation is recommended if there are concerns about phosphate levels in urine.
What does a parathyroid horrmone do?
It controls Calcium and phosphate level.It decrease phosphate level and increase calcium level.
How is Phosphorus imbalance observed?
Disorders of phosphate metabolism are assessed by measuring serum or plasma levels of phosphate and calcium
What parathyroid hormone increases serum calcium levels?
PTH activates vitamin D in the body, which absorbs calcium and phosphate from foods. It works on the intestine to increase the absorption of calcium. It causes the bones to release more calcium, and causes the kidneys to reabsorb more calcium. This all helps to increase calcium levels.
Why a stream discharge increase?
Stream discharge would increase if additional water enters it, such as from a rain storm or from melting snow.
Why should we worry about amount of phosphate found in water?
When phosphate is present in very high levels it is toxic to people or animals.

How do you raise phosphate levels in a pool?
You don't normally want to raise phosphate levels in your water. Phosphates are food for algae. You want to keep the phosphate below 125ppm to help prevent algae from growing in your pool. GO TO JACKS MAGIC WEBSITE AND READ DR. NEIL LOWRY'S PAPER ON PHOSPHATES. YOU WILL KNOW ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW.
