Abstract

ConclusionTwo renal clearance experiments in a dog indicate that dl-β-hydroxy-butyrate is excreted by the kidney in a fashion resembling many amino acids. The maximum rate of tubular reabsorption (TmβB) appears to lie between 2 and 3 mg per minute per kg of animal. An appreciable excretion of β-hydroxybutyrate occurs at a plasma level of 8 mg %.
