What affects the concentration of sodium in the blood?
The concentration of sodium in the blood plasma depends on two things: the total amount of sodium and water in arteries, veins, and capillaries
What is the normal concentration of sodium chloride in human blood plasma?
The normal concentration of sodium in the blood plasma is 136-145 mM
What is hemo-concentration?
Hemoconcentration occurs when there is an increase in the concentration of blood cells as the result of the loss of plasma from the bloodstream. A decrease in volume of plasma and an increase in red blood circulating.
What is plasma viremia titer?
It is a way of representing the concentration of the virus particles in blood plasma
When does FSH peak in concentration in the blood plasma?
Day 3
What osmometer cell sense?
chages in the concentration of blood plasma
Why is the concentration of hydrogen or hydroxide ions in blood plasma or cell cytoplasm critical?
The concentration of hydrogen or hydroxide ions in blood plasma and cell cytoplasm is critical. These hydrogen and hydroxide ions can be combined to form water.
What carries blood with high concentration of urea?
the blood plasma carries waste products, including urea.
What causes hemo-concentration?
When a person loses blood plasma, a rise in cellular concentration as well as protein concentration occurs. This is hemoconcentration when this occurs.
Why use plasma concentration rather than blood concentration in monitoring drug concentration in the body?
Most compounds are given as their concentration in blood plasma as well as with the conditions of collection. It is a form of standardization used in order to compare results across laboratories and over time. As blood volume and percent hematocrit (a measure of red blood cells) are fairly constant relative to body mass using the concentration in plasma ensures consistency in measurement. Another factor is that red blood cells are not equilibrated with the concentration of all compounds outside the cell equally. Transportation of compounds across the cell membrane is regulated.
If body cells lack ldl receptors the plasma concentration of ldl molecules?
increases and the blood cholesterol concentration increases.
The blood colloid osmotic pressure mostly depends on?
concentration of plasma proteins.
