Subsequent work enlarged upon this early knowledge and demonstrated that: [1] fluids injected into the peritoneal cavity would change in volume over a short period of time according to the concentration and nature of solutes in the dialyzing fluid (3-7); and [2] various substances would cross the peritoneum in response to concentration gradients (3, 4, 7-11). It was demonstrated that urea, uric acid, creatinine, and sulfate, as well as chlorbutanol, salicylates, and phenolphthalein (7) would migrate into fluids injected into...References1.
