If blood pH is too low (ph < 7.35 ) = acidosis

If blood pH is too high (pH > 7.45) = alkalosis

In alkalosis: at the intercalated cells of the collecting duct the following occurs:

secretion of Hco3- (via Hco3- / cl- antiporters) into the glomerular filtrate, which ultimately forms the urine.

Rebsorption of Hydrogen ions (via ATPase dependant proton pumps)
