    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The kidney is considered the most important organ of excretion eliminating the body from metabolic waste products. The nephron is the functional unit of the kidney, composed of a cluster of capillaries named glomerulus, and a tubular system. The blood is filtered in the glomerular capillaries across the glomerular filtration barrier. READ MORE
