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
