Dynamic surface tension (ST) of the blood serum and urine was studied in patients with diabetic nephropathy by the method of maximal pressure in a vesicle using MPT2 computer tensiometer (LAUDA, Germany). The angle of the slope of blood tensiogram curve increased and urinary ST decreased at t = 1 sec in patients with type I diabetics in comparison with those with type II condition. The development of the nephrotic syndrome and chronic renal insufficiency was associated with decrease of ST in the range of short (t = 0.01 sec) and medium (t = 1 sec) times of surface life and of the equilibrium (static) ST (at t -> go/. The parameters of interphase tensiometry correlated with the content of protein and lipid surfactants in biological fluids.
