Abstract

Thermo- and thermoelectrokinetic emf and conductivity are experimentally determined for aqueous solutions the properties and composition of which are similar to human blood (Ringer solution, serum albumin, and Ringer solution with serum albumin). Effect of colloid particles contained in aqueous solutions of inorganic electrolytes on thermo-emf is analyzed. The experimental results show that the coefficient of thermo-emf of liquids based on the Ringer solution noticeably depends on temperature and amounts to significant levels at temperatures of human body. The results indicate that the effects under study may play an important role in triggering of thermoregulation of living organisms.
