Mike McGraw: Hoiberg says Kris Dunn will practice today and theyâll decide tomorrow if he plays vs Toronto. If Dunn does play, wonât be a ton. #Bulls
Plasma or serum typically yields values 10 12% lower than observed in whole blood. After a meal, capillary blood may be 20 70 mg/dL higher than serum assuming average hematocrit of 41 45%. B. Monitoring systems are not as accurate as diagnostic systems and should not be used as such.
The glomerular capillaries, peritubular capillaries and the Bowman's capsule are all integral to the filtration process. In the nephron, approximately 20 percent of the blood gets filtered under pressure through the walls of the glomerular capillaries and Bowman's capsule. The filtrate is composed of water, ions (sodium, potassium, chloride), glucose and small proteins (less than 30,000 daltons -- a dalton is a unit of molecular weight). The rate of filtration is approximately 125 ml/min or 45 gallons (180 liters) each day.
