In experiments on the white rats it was established that the steady-state (during 8 days) darkness results in desynchronization of the circadian rhythms of kidney excretory function. Hydrocortisone hydrochloride 5 mg/kg during constant darken resulted in poluria, natriuresis and acidogenesis without influencing the acid phosphates excretion.
