The Hydrogen Ion Concentration and Bicar- Bonate Level of the Blood in Pneumonia.*

چکیده
Certain studies of the acid-base equilibrium in disease were reported from this clinic a year ago (1). The method employed was in brief the determination of the carbon dioxide dissociation (or absorption) curve, and the carbon dioxide content of the patient’s arterial and venous blood, and from these data the construction of the carbon dioxide diagram of Haggard and Henderson (2). The method was described in the first paper (1). The further studies reported here were carried out in an identical manner, except that the Van Slyke (3) blood gas apparatus was used instead of the Henderson (4). The combined method of Van Slyke and Stadie (5) was used. In the present research all arterial or A-points, and all venous or V-points, were placed on the dissociation curve at its intersection with the abscissa representing the carbon dioxide content of the blood as found by analysis. All the curves obtained are shown in Figs. 1 to 7. They are all for blood equilibrated with air and various tensions of carbon dioxide at the patient’s body temperature. Since in venous blood and in some pathologic arterial bloods there is an oxygen unsaturation, the curve obtained for fully aerated blood does not truly represent that of the blood as it exists in artery or vein. The effect of oxygen unsaturation according to

In concentration of hydrogen peroxide, first, the solution should be quite pure, and then, it concentrate with methods such as vacuum distillation and cooling crystallization, because impurities in the hydrogen peroxide solution in high concentrations are causing decomposition of this substance; that is very dangerous. The purpose of this article is separation of chromium and magne...

Background: Acute methanol poisoning is one of the most important chemical poisoning due to drinking of illegal and handmade alcoholic beverages in Iran. The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical and biochemical parameters as prognostic factor in acute methanol poisoning.

متن کاملHydrogen Ion Concentration in Exudates of Pneumococcus Infection
The hydrogen ion concentration in the lesions of experimental pneumococcus infection has been estimated directly by pH determinations on exudates from living animals. For indirect evidence of an increase in hydrogen ion concentration within the lesions, the difference in sugar content between exudate and blood from animals with pneumococcus infection has been measured. With sanguinous exudate f...

Extracellular alkalosis also affects blood lactate concentration by in creasing the magnitude and rate of lactate efflux from muscle during contraction (Mainwood and WorselyBrown 1975, Spriet et al. 19...
