Clearance in hemodialysis is the clearance of a dialyzer. It can further be explained as the capacity of the dialyzer to uncloud urea from the blood. It is denoted as 'K' in milliliters/min.
An adult male (73 years old, 65 kg) with diabetes mellitus is placed on hemodialysis. His residual creatinine clearance is <5mL/min. The patient is given tobramycin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic, at a dose, at a dose of 1 mg/kg by IV bolus injection. Tobramycin is 90% excreted unchanged in the urine, is less than 10% to plasma protein, and has elimination half-life 2.2 hours in patient with normal renal function. In this patient, tobramycin has an elimination t1/2 of 50hours during...

One of the touted advantages of sexual reproduction is the clearance of deleterious mutations. What mechanisms are involved in clearance? Describe them and illustrate the process by which a deleterious mutation—say, the allele Abad—is cleared. Why doesn’t clearance typically occur in asexual species?
