Bull Exp Biol Med. 2004 Aug;138(2):210-2. doi: 10.1023/b:bebm.0000048392.47753.f8.

Abstract

Stages of modeling of polyetiological electrolyte nephropathy in rats are described. Morphological study confirmed the presence of interstitial and tubular disorders in rat kidneys. The model is intended for studies of the mechanisms underlying the formation, development, and correction of nephrological diseases.
