Sentences with phrase «bicarbonate buffer»

The traditional metabolic model assumes the buildup is related to lack of oxygen in the cell, so the common treatment has been to administer oxygen and bicarbonate buffers.

Not exact matches

The chewed and digested plant matter is regurgitated into the mouth, where the saliva has a high concentration of bicarbonate, which acts as a buffer to the stomach acid coming into the mouth with the cud (McDougall 1948).

A normal healthy body will adjust its acidity by producing more bicarbonate to buffer the acid.

This is mainly due to the synergistic effect of both beta alanine and sodium bicarbonate on buffering muscle acidity (43).

The body's natural solution to excess acid is to buffer it with bicarbonate and to this end it produces its own bicarbonate.

With the onslaught of acidity from foods and stress along with decreasing ability of the body to keep up with buffering all this acidity our bodies often can not keep up adequately with sufficient production of bicarbonates (especially true as we age or if we have a chronic stress).

Bicarbonates are the primary transporters of oxygen in the body and are used to buffer acidity, while magnesium is known as the master mineral because it's vital for bodily functions, yet is deficient in most people.

And then that reaction where the kidneys buffer bicarbonate ions also produces salts, which are then excreted by the kidneys, and during the excretion of those salts, the kidney makes new bicarbonate ions that replace what was used up in the buffering of the acid, and that just produces this ongoing sustainable cycle that's not adverse for bone health in any way.

So I don't understand how bicarbonate, which helps to buffer an acidic diet, could be a risk factor for osteoporosis.

And there's a whole sustainable process there, where when protein is digested, acids are buffered by these bicarbonate ions that are made by the kidneys, and that reaction produces carbon dioxide, which is an acid, and the carbon dioxide is exhaled by the lungs, which is, by the way, the biggest source of acid elimination in the body by far, that exhalation of carbon dioxide, and it happens very quickly.

Beta - alanine and bicarbonate may help buffer metabolic acids during longer sprints, according to an article in the «Journal of Sports Science.»

Ascorbic acid and sodium bicarbonate that is fully reacted for a truly buffered form of Vitamin - C.

Another study in the International Journal of Sports Medicine discovered that sodium bicarbonate helped to stave off fatigue in swimmers, improving their finish times in the 200 - meter freestyle race — most likely by assisting with the athletes» acid - buffering capacity.

Phosphorus is one of the key nutrients our body uses to maintain proper pH. In fact, the phosphorus buffer system is one of the three major ways we balance pH in our body (the other systems being the bicarbonate and protein buffer systems).

Now, the body contains natural compounds such as bicarbonate, that act as buffers to neutralize blood acidity.

Bicarbonate is another way to buffer the effects of lactic acid pain.

Some cats become deficient in blood phosphorus as well and many require intravenous buffers (bicarbonate) to bring their blood pH back into normal range.

It does so by conserving and creating bicarbonate, a buffer, when blood pH becomes too low (acidosis).

In the absence of that ion supply, abiotic CO2 uptake in the ocean as a function of CO2 in air is at least somewhat limited by ions already present; acification can (over time) dissolve carbonate minerals that supply cations and carbonate ions, buffering pH and reacting with CO2 to form bicarbonate ions; new cations from chemical weathering have to be supplied to actually remove C from the oceans while keeping pH from dropping and without releasing as much CO2 from bicarbonate ions).

They will also enable us to address how bicarbonate anions interact with calcium and magnesium cations in solution to create the nanoclusters that nucleate limestone formation, and how bicarbonate anions buffer blood and other bodily fluids.»

The same carbonate chemistry reactions that provide more CO2 for photosynthesis also explain how some pharmaceutical antacids work and how DIC buffers ocean pH. Bicarbonate is a common ingredient in antacids like Alka - seltzer.

However below pH 7.0, nearly all carbonate ions (CO3 - 2) will be converted to bicarbonate (HCO3 --RRB-, so that carbonate ions no longer serve as buffering agents.

It's interesting to consider that the pH of both the oceans and your blood is maintained by carbonate (and / or bicarbonate) buffers that keep the system from getting too far out of whack.
