Active uptake of PAH by rat renal cortex slices was studied by the method of Cross and Taggart. Uptake was determined at low and at high medium concentrations of PAH. Pentobarbital sodium in concentrations comparable to those found in plasma during anesthesia, significantly depressed the uptake of PAH on all occasions. Simultaneously oxygen consumption was reduced. Acetate failed to stimulate PAH uptake in the presence of pentobarbital, although tissue respiration was restored to normal.
