Hi,
This situation should be avioded, as buffer requires excess water to be effective.

the pH of the blood drops slightly
The pH range for carbonate-bicarbonate buffer is 9,2.
The bicarbonate buffer system is the most important buffer in extracellular fluids, including blood. It helps maintain the pH level of the body within a narrow range by regulating the levels of bicarbonate ions and carbonic acid.
Bicarbonate
Bicarbonate of soda
When the carbonic acid-sodium bicarbonate buffer pair buffers lactic acid, the carbonic acid in the buffer donates hydrogen ions to neutralize the lactic acid, forming more bicarbonate ions. This helps maintain the pH of the solution within a normal range by minimizing changes in hydrogen ion concentration.

The main buffer in the extracellular fluid is the bicarbonate buffer system, which consists of bicarbonate ions and carbonic acid. This system helps to regulate the pH of the blood by maintaining a balance between H+ ions and bicarbonate ions.
The buffer system in whole blood is made up of carbonic acid-bicarbonate buffer system and protein buffer system. The carbonic acid-bicarbonate buffer system helps regulate pH by balancing the levels of carbonic acid and bicarbonate ions. The protein buffer system involves proteins like hemoglobin that can bind to and release hydrogen ions to help maintain a stable pH in the blood.
The bicarbonate buffering system typically acts the fastest among the body's buffer systems. This system helps regulate the pH of the blood by quickly reacting with excess hydrogen ions to maintain a stable pH.
Bicarbonate (HCO3)
The most important buffer for maintaining acid-base balance in the blood is the carbonic acid-bicarbonate buffer.
