| Popis: |
Measurement of solute concentrations in biologic fluids by an osmometric technique has been described previously. Here, we describe an osmometric technique for measuring CO2 in gas samples. A solution of NaOH is injected into a graduated syringe containing the gas sample and CO2 is trapped in the reaction: 2NaOH + CO2 leads to Na2CO3 + H2O. The decrease in osmolality of the NaOH solution allows estimation of pCO2 in the original gas sample. |
