Figure 8. Effects of alkalosis on whole-blood [Lac⁻] at rest, during finger flexion exercise at 75% WR_peak continued to fatigue, and recovery.

Arterial (A), venous (B) and calculated arterio-venous differences (C) in whole-blood [Lac⁻], under Con (•) and Alk (▿) conditions. *Different from rest (P < 0.05, time main effect). †Alk > Con (P < 0.05, treatment main effect). Data and presentation as in Fig. 3. Arterio-venous whole-blood differences are corrected for the a–v decline in blood volume.
