Renal Tubular Acidosis

  • Chapter
Therapy of Renal Diseases and Related Disorders

Abstract

The kidney’s role in the prevention of acidosis is to excrete hydrogen ions in the form of titratable acid and ammonium, and to reabsorb bicarbonate present in the glomerular filtrate or formed during the process of urinary acidification in the distal tubule.
