a Glucose content of the extracellular fluid before and after infusion of 0.9% saline on two consecutive days. The data are the product of plasma glucose and the estimates of extracellular fluid volume as obtained by the new electrolyte equation. b Excreted amount of glucose during the 60-min infusion experiment. c Net release of glucose from the body cells during the 60-min experiment needed to account for the excreted glucose and the amount remaining in the extracellular fluid
