Mathematical model of an avian urine concentrating mechanism. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 279: F1139-F1160, 2000.-A mathematical model was used to investigate how concentrated urine is produced within the medullary cones of the quail kidney. Model simulations were consistent with a concentrating mechanism based on singlesolute countercurrent multiplication and on NaCl cycling from ascending to descending limbs of loops of Henle. The model predicted a urine-to-plasma (U/P) osmolality ratio of
