Abstract
The equilibration of Na24 with the readily exchangeable Na requires at least 24 hours, the equilibration of K42 requires 48 hours, and that of D2O, 6 hours in hydropic subjects. Approximately 94% of exchangeable K and 100% of total body water are measured with equilibration periods as detailed.Keywords
