Excretion of creatinine, sodium sulfanilate (SS), and phenolsulfonphthalein (PSP) was studied in healthy goats. In conscious goats, mean (+/- SEM) inulin clearance was 2.26 +/- 0.08 ml/min/kg of body weight. Endogenous creatinine clearance, 1.97 +/- 0.09 ml/min/kg, underestimated inulin clearance (P < 0.01), probably because of the presence of noncreatinine chromogens in caprine plasma. The estimated renal clearance of PSP was 6.88 +/- 0.39 ml/min/kg, whereas the estimated renal clearance of SS was 3.71 +/- 0.39 ml/min/kg. Both exceeded inulin clearance (P < 0.01), confirming renal tubular secretion of both compounds. In 6 anesthetized goats, exogenous creatinine clearance and SS clearance exceeded inulin clearance (P < 0.05). Results of stop-flow experiments documented secretion of creatinine and ss by the peoximal portion of the caprine nephron. Plasma half-life of PSP in uninephrectomized goats exceeded that in intact goats (20.2 +/- 1.5 min vs 11.9 +/- 0.7 min; P < 0.01). Similarly, plasma half-life of SS was greater in goats after uninephrectomy (58.2 +/- 6.2 min vs 30.4 1.2 min; p < 0.01).
