Abstract excerpt
We recently re-inbred the original colony of SBH-SBN rats, a model of salt-induced hypertension. In the course of phenotyping the new colony, SBH/y were found to excrete a lower urine flow with a higher urine osmolality than SBN/y. Thus disparate water handling between the substrains, a phenotype...
