A study of the behaviour of cobalt chloride during the labelling of leukocytes with 99Tcm-HMPAO stabilised in vitro by the addition of cobalt chloride solution.

abstract：:In normal adults, the maintenance of phosphate balance involves the reabsorption of 85-90% of filtered phosphate by the proximal tubule. At a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of 125 ml min-1 and a plasma phosphate concentration of 1.3 mmol l-1, the filtered phosphate is approximately 235 mmol day-1. Following intraven...
