Popis: The effects of CO2 (100 ppm) bathing were investigated. It was found that the chest blood flow, chest sweat rate and tympanic temperature were significantly greater during the immersion in CO2 bathing than in freshwater bathing ( P 0.05 ). Thus, CO2 bathing at 100 ppm could produce cutaneous vasodilatation in the immersed skin, affecting thermoregulation.
