Abstract

Summary A method for the determination ofblood plasma pH has been presented. A typical optical density curve has been shown. A pH range of normal blood plasma has been established. The hydrogen ion concentration of banked blood and changes with age of the blood have been presented. Several clinical cases have been mentioned in which this determination was found to be of value. The range of error on duplicate determinations of single specimens has been stated. This technique is not difficult andappears to offer a simple and reliable method in establishing diagnosis and following patients with disturbances in acid-base equilibrium.
