CARBON dioxide retention resulting in an elevation of carbon dioxide tension of body fluids occurs commonly in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The hydration of carbon dioxide to carbonic acid ...

Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and American eels (Anguilla rostrata) were infused intra-arterially with NaHCO₃ (∼800 μmol/kg/h) to assess their acid-base regulatory mechanisms during metabolic ...

Isoproterenol (β adrenoceptor agonist), propranolol (β adrenoceptor antagonist), or saline (sham) was administered to seawater-adapted rainbow trout immediately after exhaustive exercise in order to ...

Acid-base balance refers to the levels of acidity and alkalinity your blood needs in order to keep your body functioning. Too much acid in the blood is known as acidosis, while too much alkalinity is ...

This review describes a method of analyzing acid–base disorders that incorporates insights from the traditional, bicarbonate-centered model and the Stewart (or strong ion) model (Table 1). 1–6 ...

Alkaline diets prioritize alkaline, or low-acid, foods to maintain a healthy acid-base balance in the body. Alkaline diets may support heart health by reducing blood pressure and cholesterol levels ...

Acid-base titration techniques, including alkalimetry and acidimetry, are fundamental for precise chemical analysis in diverse scientific and industrial fields.
