what is the optimum pH for enzymes

7.35-7.45 or 35-45 nM H+

1 of 11

How do we gain pH

H+ from CO2. 2.production of nonvolatile acids from metabolism of proteins etc. 3. gain H+ due to loss of bicarbonate in diarrhea. 4. Gain due to bicarbonate loss in urine.

2 of 11

how do we lose pH

using H in metabolism of organic anions. 2. loss in vomit. 3, loss in urine. 4.hyperventilation

3 of 11

what is the most important buffer

H2CO3

4 of 11

pH=

conc HCO3-/pCO2 and pk-log[HCO3-]/[H2CO3]

5 of 11

what does a rise in PCO2 cause?

increase repiration to elimintate co2 from body

6 of 11

where is bicarbonate reabsorbed?

PT, ascending LOH, cortical collecting ducts(intercalated cells) HCo3 into capillarty H+ into lumen. if hco2- in lumen the combines with H+ to form water and co2 which goes back into cell. if not bicarbondate in filtrate, H+ binds to HPO4 and is excr

7 of 11

What happens to glutamine in CD cells?

taken in from lumen with Na+, glutamine slit into NH4+ and HCo3-. NH4+ actively transported out as Na+ in. HCO3- into capillary. NH4+ secreted.

8 of 11

Respiratory acidosis

9 of 11

respiratory alkalosis

ph>7.45 HCO3- decreases as reacts with H+ to form CO2. reduce ventilation. reduce H+ secretion, so therefore HCO3- is secreted as less h+ to ensure it isnt.

10 of 11

metabolic alkalosis

intercalate cell type b secrete hco3- into urine
