Sentences with phrase «release bicarbonate»

The pancreas: is signaled to release bicarbonate (i.e. baking soda — to neutralize the chyme) and pancreatic juice (to enhance digestion) into the small intestine.

They will also release bicarbonate to regulate the acidity of your blood.

Not exact matches

This solution would then be reacted with limestone, neutralizing the CO2 by converting it to calcium bicarbonate, after which it would be released into the ocean.

They looked for those that were triggered to release oxygen by bicarbonate ions, and found that human haemoglobin behaved like its counterpart in crocodiles if it contained a particular sequence of just 12 amino acids from the crocodile's haemoglobin.

Haemoglobin engineered to include the crocodile's triggering mechanism, however, would release the oxygen in the presence of bicarbonate in the bloodstream.

When hydrogen ions are released in seawater, they combine with carbonate ions to form bicarbonate.

When the apple mush (now called chime) enters the small intestine, the environment is changed from acid to alkaline by the release of bicarbonate (very similar to good old baking soda) from the pancreas.

In short, using enough heat for a long enough period of time will change the structure of sodium bicarbonate into sodium carbonate while releasing excess carbon dioxide and steam.Bonus points if you try this simple method and turn it into a science lesson for your kids at the same time!

Stomach acid also signals the release of digestive enzymes and bicarbonate from the pancreas required for digestion.

All foods that we digest release an alkaline ash (bicarbonate) or an acid ash into blood and tissues of the body depending on the mineral compounds that the foods contain.

And that chyme is the — should have a nice low pH and that low pH and that chyme is actually going to be released from our stomach into the small intestine and once it's released, our pancreas spits out a whole bunch of bicarbonate to kind of bring the pH back up so we don't have an ulcer in our small intestine, but that nice low pH initially triggers our pancreas to make a whole bunch of enzymes like trypsin and chymotrypsin and lipase, these are fat enzymes and protein enzymes that will help break down protein and fat, and it will also trigger out gallbladder to contract and spit out a whole bunch of bile salts which will start helping to emulsify fat.

After digestion, absorption, and metabolism, nearly all foods release either acid or bicarbonate (base) into the systemic circulation (146,147).

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).

Carbon dioxide (CO2) acts as a weak acid when added to seawater leading to the release of hydrogen ions (H +) and bicarbonate (HCO3 --RRB- ions.

The reason for this is that bicarbonate is converted to carbonate in a warmer ocean, releasing a hydrogen ion thus stabilizing the pH.

The bicarbonate can break down and release CO2 into the atmosphere, for example if it is used in baking breads.

To be more precise, a net effect of the increased CO2 is to increase bicarbonate, carbonate, and hydrogen ion, and the effect of interaction with CaCO3 is that the carbonate ions released from CaCO3 partially compensate for a conversion of dissolved carbonate to bicarbonate.
