#PhosphatePhacts post 8 (and the final one)! This post features more about CKD, its symptoms, and risk factors. Hopefully by now you can see just how profound the impact of CKD is on patients and the population as a whole, and the importance of the phosphate biosensor that our team is currently developing. We hope you enjoyed this series!

#PhosphatePhacts post 7! Because phosphate levels are critical to monitor in patients with CKD, we thought that these next (and last) two posts should teach you more about CKD. This particular post focuses on the impact of CKD, and other general facts about it.

#PhosphatePhacts post 6! So phosphate and other electrolytes must be regulated carefully to maintain homeostasis, and who better to take on this role than the kidneys? But when the kidneys start to fail, what happens? Find out here!

#PhosphatePhacts post 5! Phosphate and calcium levels have to be kept in a close balance to maintain homeostasis, find out how here!
