Table 2.

Responses of HCl-CA acidified canine blood to added base solutions.

Added base solution Conc. (mM) pH PCO2 (mm Hg) [HCO3] (mM) [Na+] (mM) [K+] (mM) [Cl] (mM)
None 0 6.62 113 10.8 128 3.8 94
NaHCO3 150 6.82 141 21.2 135 3.1 92
Na2CO3 150 7.31 61 28.4 153 3.0 98
NaOH 150 7.21 23 8.3 135 3.2 95
Na2CO3 + NaOH (1:1) 75 + 75 = 150 tot 7.37 28 15.3 143 3.1 97

(1 part solution: 9 parts HCl-CA-K9-2): see Figure 4 for plot of added strong base solutions.
