The Kinetics of the Potassium Concentration in Brain Extracellular Fluid During Respiratory and Metabolic Disturbances

  • Conference paper

Abstract

It has been recently shown that the brain extracellular bicarbonate exchanges against chloride – similar to the Hamburger shift of the red cells — not only across the blood-brain-barrier but also with brain cells. The exchange ratio of bicarbonate and chloride was observed to be nearly one (1, 4).
