At high concentration which oxides are poisonous?
Based on the pH of your drug, if your drug was in a high concentration in the blood, how would it affect the pH of your blood. Would it cause acidosis or alkalosis, and how would you treat this?
the drug name is captopril and the pH is 2.65
Researchers are developing blood substitutes to meet the demand for emergency transfusions. What would be the effect of artificial blood in which the binding of 02 is not altered by acidity?
