Acid-base status of canine blood during storage
Abstract
The changes in pH, pCO2, pO2, based excess, standard bicarbonate and lactic acid during storage of canine blood 24 hours at different temperatures were measured (table I a, b) and illustrated (figs. 1 and 2). A correction table (table V) for determination of the initial acid-base data is constructed based upon regression equations (table IV) of the in vitro changes during storage of the blood. The changes in the acid-base values of canine blood differ from that of bovine and human blood (tables II and III).
