Abstract

The effects of CO 2 (100 ppm) bathing were investigated. It was found that the chest blood flow, chest sweat rate and tympanic temperature were significantly greater during the immersion in CO 2 bathing than in freshwater bathing ( P < 0.05 ). Thus, CO 2 bathing at 100 ppm could produce cutaneous vasodilatation in the immersed skin, affecting thermoregulation.
