Abstract
Summary (1) Rats which have been reared on a low-sodium diet excrete radioactive sodium more rapidly than normal rats, and retain radioactive potassium in greater amounts than normal. In this respect they resemble untreated adrenalectomized rats. The giving of cortin corrected this disturbance. (2) Rats deficient in potassium excrete radioactive sodium at a normal rate but retain radioactive potassium.Keywords
