We have examined the urea excreting activity of the kidney comparing the ratio (Urea in one hour's urine/Urea in Urea 100cc of blood) in control and in phlorhizised rabbits. It showed, as we can see in Table I and II, that the ratio in the control gives an average 1.90, while that in the case of phlorhizinised rabbits gives 1.84. It is evident from the results that the phlorhizin has no appreciable effect on the urea. excreting activity of the kidney.
The average amount of sugar eliminated in urine by phlorhizinised rabbits was 1.30%.
A slight diuresis after phlorhizin injection, as previously well known, occurred also in these cases.
