Abstract
From 43 observations on 8 dogs the authors conclude that the excretion of urea by the normal, unanesthetized dog on a mixed diet can be described with statistical correctness by the maximal and standard urea clearance equations of Moller, McIntosh and Van Slyke. The augmentation limit is about 0.4 cc. per min. urine flow, the maximal clearance is 58.0 and the standard clearance is 925 per sq. m. body surface. The urea clearance, either maximal or standard, averages only 53% of the simultaneous creatinine clearance when creatinine is administered to raise the blood level.
