Factors which Determine Renal Weight*

,** The Nitrogen Intake as Varied by the Addition of Urea to the Diet

Lois Lockard MacKay, Eaton MacKay and T. Addis

(From the Department of Medicine, Stanford University Medical School, San Francisco.)

The addition of urea to the diet leads to an increase in the weight of the kidneys of male albino rats 70 and 400 days of age. This increase in renal weight is less than that produced by the same nitrogen consumption obtained by the administration of protein instead of urea.

* This investigation was made possible by a grant from the Ella Sachs Poltz Foundation.

** Paper XI of this series appeared in The Journal of Experimental Medicine.

Manuscript received 6 December 1930.
