Water flux in animals analysis of potential errors in the tritiated water method.

Water flux in animals [electronic resource] : analysis of potential errors in the tritiated water method.

Laboratory studies indicate that tritiated water measurements of water flux are accurate to within -7 to +4% in mammals, but errors are larger in some reptiles. However, under conditions that can occur in field studies, errors may be much greater. Influx of environmental water vapor via lungs and sk...
