Abstract
This study considered the influence of the free electrolytes in the total body
water on the electrical properties of the body. Using a model of slightly dehydrated
and then rehydrated volunteer s, the electrolyte concentration and total body
water volume were measured and compared with electrical impedance (Z) measurements
of the body. (Abbreviation abstract)
