H Buffers

We have shown (10) that base (dr nucleophilic) catalysed hydrolysis contributes to the decomposition of N-nitroso-2-pyrrol-idone at 25°C in CI2HCCO H and CIH CCO H buffers at pH 1-3, and... 

Although C02 is a normal metabolite, it is toxic at elevated levels. C02 exists in equilibrium with carbonic acid (H2C03) and with bicarbonate (HCO, ), a major H+ buffer. Renal conservation of HCO, is generally sufficient to buffer hypercapnia however, an added insult, such as...

Sub-culturing ES cells Refeed ES cells 2-3 h prior to subculturing. Wash ES cells with H/H buffer, add 1 mL 0.25% trypsin-EDTA, and incubate for 2.5 min in a 37°C incubator. Shake the plate, incubate for another 2.5 min, gently pipet the cells up and down several times to break cell clumps, add 5 mL ES media and pipet up and down for another several times, centrifuge for 5 min at 270g, resuspend the cells in ES media and determine the cell concentration. Pass 5 x 105 cells to a new 6-cm EF-cell plate. 

Aspirate the media from the plates with ES colonies and replace with H/H buffer. 

Aspirate the entire 24-well plate and wash once with H/H buffer.

The acid CHjCOOH can release a H+ to neutralise an OH- ion similarly, the base CH3COCT can take up a H+. Buffering is most effective when equal concentrations of CHjCOOH and CHjCOO are present. According to the Henderson-Has-selbalch equation, which can be derived directly from the law of mass action, this condition arises when the pH value of the solution is equal to the pK value. 

Hypoventilation causes retention of C02 by the lungs, which can lead to a respiratory acidosis. Hyperventilation can cause a respiratory alkalosis. Metabolic acidosis can result from accumulation of metabolic acids (lactic acid or the ketone bodies p-hydroxybutyric acid and acetoacetic acid), or ingestion of acids or compounds that are metabolized to acids (methanol, ethylene glycol). Metabolic alkalosis is due to increased HC03, which is accompanied by an increased pH. Acid-base disturbances lead to compensatory responses that attempt to restore normal pH. For example, a metabolic acidosis causes hyperventilation and the release of C02, which tends to lower the pH. During metabolic acidosis, the kidneys excrete NH4+, which contains H+ buffered by ammonia.

Dilute the liposomal formulations to a final concentration of 4 mg lipids/1 mg ATP/mL with K-H buffer. 

To prepare Rhodamine-labeled liposomes, add 0.5% Rhodamine-PE in standard formulation (Subheading 3.1, item 1) and hydrate lipid film with 40 mM FlTC-dextran in K-H buffer. Remove non-encapsulated FlTC-dextran with by gel-filtration on NAP column.

FIGURE 9.4 Mass spectra of laser ablated graphite in the H, buffer gas. One-photon ionization with lO.SeV/photon. Delay times (gs) are shown to the right. Spectra observed at 55 and 65 gs are expanded by a factor of 20 and those at 200 and 8000 gs by 40. TOF mass peak assignment is given in the bottom spectrum. Vertical dotted lines are to assist reading the subtle but significant shitt of the peaks.

With a judicious choice of parameters, it should be possible to estimate the length of time it takes to develop the / H-buffered zones, and their position as a function of flow time. In this greatly simplified model, the pR values do not correspond well to the observed values, but the three zones are clearly developed.
