acid |
releases H |
|
base |
accepts H |
|
bodys most important acids and bases |
weak acid= H2CO3 which is derived from CO2 weak base= HCO3 |
|
when an acid is added to water |
is dissociates to form H and conjugate anion |
|
strong acids dissociate |
completely |
|
PH is inversely related to |
H |
|
Acids are continuously generated by |
metabolic processes |
|
carbon dioxide in three forms |
disolved as gas bicarbonate ion carbaminohemoglobin |
|
CO2 combines with H2O to form |
H2CO3 this reaction is catalyzed by carbonic anyhdrase which is in RBC renal tubular cells and other tissues |
|
if we didn't have this enzyme |
reactions would be to slow to control acid base changes |
|
oxidation of a sulfur containing acid results in |
sulfuric acid |
|
oxidation of argentine and lysine produces |
hydrochloric acid |
|
oxidation of phosphorous containing AA makes |
phosphoric acid |
|
major source of base is the metabolism of aa such as |
aspartate and glutamate and organic anions |
|
plasma Ph can be determined using what equation |
henderson hasselbach |
|
body fluids is regulated by three ways |
chemical buffer systems lungs kidneys |
|
buffer system |
weak base and its conjugate acid or a weak acid and its conjugate base |
|
three major buffer systems |
bicarb (lungs) proteins ( chemical buffer systems) H/K exchange (kindeys) |
|
buffer systems can't correct |
long term |
|
bone buffering |
leads to demineralization and kidneys stones because of the excess CA |
|
ph is determined by the ratio of |
bicarb base to volatile carbonic acid |
|
concentration of metabolic acids and bicarbonate base is regulated by the |
kidney |
|
most powerful ECF buffer system |
bicarb buffer |
|
largest buffer system in body |
proteins can be acids or bases locared in cells albumin and globulins are major ones |
|
K shifts are more pronounced in _______ _________ then in respiratory acidosis |
metabolic acidosis |
|
reap response is |
rapid but doesn't completely fix ph temp fix till metabolic steps in |
|
kidneys play three major roles in acid base balance |
excrete excess H reabsorb HCO3 Produce new HCO3 |
|
most of the H secretion and HCO3 reabsorption takes place in the |
proximal tubule |
|
urine ph is kept to |
4.5 because can't have too acidic when H threatens to decrease ph its combines with buffers before excreted |
|
Hypokalemia is a stimulus for |
H secretion and HCO3 reabsorption when K falls K moves from iCF to ECF and H moves from ECF to ICF |
|
Acidosis tend to increase |
H elimentation and decrease K elimination |
|
alkalosis tend to increase |
K elimination and decrease H eliminatation |
|
Aldosteron effect on H elimination |
act in collecting duct to simulate H secreiont while increasing NA reabsopbtion and K secretion |
|
Hyperaldosterism tend to decrease |
K levels and increase ph hypo does opposite |
|
Anion gap |
diff b/w cation (NA) and sum of anions (Cl+ HCO3) normally 8-16 |
|
drugs can produce lactic acidosis by inhibiting mitochondria function |
metformin AIDS drugs |
|
asprin and acidosis |
its converted to salicylic acid cause hyperventilation and alkalosis kidneys release HCO3 and K and Na making worse give alkalization |
|
ingestion of ethylene glycol and methanol |
results in metabolic acidosis causes "drunkess" tachycardia and pulmonary edema flank pain |
|
most common cause of chronic metabolis acidosis |
kidney disease normally conserves HCO3 and gets rid of H but can't |
|
intenstinal secretion is high in |
HCO3 so loss of intestinal fluid can lead to acidosis |
|
breathing pattern in diabetic ketoacidosis |
kussmaul breathing |
|
milk alkali syndrome |
when consume a lot of CA and cause hypercalcemia and metabolic alkalosis |
|
dieuretics cause metabolic alkalosis because of the loss of |
H |
|
Hypokalemia and metabolic acidosis |
in hypokalemia the distal tubular reabsorption of K is accompanied by an increase in H secretion the secondary hyperaldosteronism in turn promotes reabsorption of NA and at the same time stimulates the secretion of H from cells in collecting duct |
