osmolality in a sentence
Examples
- A low serum osmolality will suppress the release of ADH, resulting in decreased water reabsorption and more concentrated plasma.
- Normally, when osmolality falls below its set point, plasma vasopressin levels become undetectable, and an aquaresis results.
- Analysis of the sample includes sterility, cell count / cell viability, metabolites, gases, osmolality and more.
- In these rare psychogenic cases, the patients have normal levels of urine osmolality as well as typical ADH activity.
- Therefore, bedside calculations are actually in units of osmolarity, whereas laboratory measurements will provide readings in units of osmolality.
- The site claims an osmolality of 330 mosm / L, which is nearly all derived from the 50g of glucose.
- It has a pH of 4.0 to 6.2 and osmolality of 270 to 310 mOsm / kg.
- Its levels in the blood vary with the osmolality of the plasma, which is measured in the hypothalamus of the brain.
- Serum osmolarity / osmolality is also affected by vasopressin due to its role in keeping proper electrolytic balance in the blood stream.
- The urine of these patients was of a relatively fixed specific gravity and an osmolality very similar to that of the serum.
