objective(s) motility plays a major role in pathogenicity of helicobacter pylori, yet there is  scarce data regarding its chemotactic behaviour. the present study was designed to investigate the chemotactic responses of local isolates of h. pylori towards various sugars, amino acids, as well as some other chemical substances. materials and methods chemotaxis was assayed by a modified adler’s me...

IT has been well established that Diamox causes excretion of cations, especially sodium and potassium, and that in conditions of sodium depletion potassium may be excreted in place of sodium (Milne, 1956). In fact the administration of potassium bicarbonate will increase the systemic effects of Diamox. We have already drawn attention to the correlation between cation excretion and fall in intra...

The present studies examined the mechanism of bicarbonate transport across basolateral membrane vesicles prepared from rabbit renal cortex. Isotopic sodium uptake was stimulated by bicarbonate when compared with gluconate (2.5 nmol/mg protein per 5 s versus 1.4 nmol/mg protein per 5 s), and this process was inhibited by disulfonic stilbenes. Imposition of an interiorpositive potassium diffusion...

We examined the ability of the mucus layer adherent to isolated pieces of rabbit gastric mucosa to maintain a pH gradient across it. Using antimony microelectrodes, a stable pH gradient was detected from pH 2.31 +/- 0.04 on the luminal side to pH 7.26 +/- 0.15 (n = 22) on the epithelial side of the mucus layer. The gradient was maintained for at least 60 minutes. A metabolic inhibitor, potassiu...

1. In experimental nephritis caused by cantharidin, arsenic, diphtheria toxin, and potassium chromate, in addition to the retention of the non-protein and urea nitrogen and of the chlorides in blood, an acidosis occurs. 2. Sodium bicarbonate given by the stomach has the power of diminishing the acidosis in these types of nephritis. 3. The degree of increase in the non-protein and urea nitrogen ...

BMJ 1991;302:88-9 Oral rehydration solutions are highly effective for treating most patients with dehydration due to diarrhoea. Early formulations contained glucose and three salts: sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, and potassium chloride. Subsequently, a formulation containing trisodium citrate dihydrate instead of sodium bicarbonate was shown to be more stable under high humidity and tempe...

Alkali pretreatment is one of the chemical technologies that has been examined on various types lignocellulosic biomass. To gain a better insight into effects potassium-based catalyst pyrolysis behavior with different materials, potassium bicarbonate (KHCO3) and nitrate (KNO3) were used as additives in this study. The experimental parameters which included particle size, heating rate, additive ...

BACKGROUND Given the known deleterious effects seen with bicarbonate supplementation for acidemia, we hypothesized that utilizing high bicarbonate concentration replacement solution in continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH) would be independently associated with higher mortality. METHODS In a propensity score-matched historical cohort study conducted at a single tertiary care center from...
