Comparative Physiology of the Vertebrate Kidney

Viac o knihe

Focusing on the physiological functions of vertebrate kidneys, this second edition emphasizes nonmammalian species while providing a comparative analysis with mammals. It covers renal structure, glomerular ultrafiltration, tubular transport, and urine processing. Detailed findings on nonmammalian renal function and critical unanswered questions are explored, making it a valuable resource for biological scientists and advanced biology students interested in renal physiology, as well as mammalian renal physiologists seeking broader insights.
