Abstract
The article offers information about renal acidosis. It is mentioned that the renal acidification process regulates acid-base balance by regulating the concentration of plasma bicarbonate. The renal acidification process operates to maintain plasma bicarbonate at physiologic concentrations. Furthermore, both reabsorption of bicarbonate and excretion of acid appear to be mediated by a single operation of the renal tubule.
