Effects of the administration of different doses of ornithine HCl to mice on plasma (a), pancreas (b) and liver (c) potassium levels. l-Ornithine HCl was administered at the dose of 2, 3 or 4 g/kg (two injections, 1 h apart) and tissue potassium was determined 2 h after the last injection. Results are given as mean ± SE from six animals. Statistical significance: (*) P < 0.01, (**) P < 0.001, (***) P < 0.0001 versus control
