Abstract
Conclusions
1. A “single pass” technic is described for studying the intrinsic metabolism of the kidney. 2. It is shown that P uptake by ADP-ATP and G-1-P is very rapid, more so in the cortex than in the medulla. G-1-P probably is derived from glycogen via the phosphorylase reaction. 3. The very low relative S.A. of the G-6-P seems to indicate that most, if not all, of the G-6-P found in the kidney is formed elsewhere in the body and carried to this organ by the blood.
