Major functions of the distal nephron include the regeneration of bicarbonate, the excretion of acid (hydrogen ion), the secretion of potassium, and the reabsorption of water. Damage to this portion of the nephron may present as significant acidemia and either hypo-or hyperkalemia, depending on the mechanism of injury. For example, amphotericin B produces small pores in the luminal membrane of distal tubular cells. These pores allow small molecules such as potassium to leak out the molecules are then wasted in the urine. Consequently, amphotericin B nephrotoxicity is characterized by hypokalemia secondary to renal potassium wasting. ATN is associated with urinary sediment characterized by the presence of tubular cells, coarse granular casts, and rarely, RBC casts.

The presence of iron minerals and their respective reactivity towards sulfide is of greatest importance for the pore water chemistry and the limitation for pyrite formation. In case of reactive iron rich sediments dissolved iron may build-up in pore water and dissolved sulfide is hardly present although sulfate reduction occurs. In contrast, in sediments characterized by a low content of reactive iron dissolved sulfide can build-up instead of dissolved iron (Canfield 1989). The degree of pyritisation (DOP) was originally defined by Berner (1970) and was later modified by Leventhal and Taylor (1990) and Raiswell et al. (1994). DOP is now defined as ...
