Characteristics of Hydrogen Ion Transport in Urinary Bladder of Water Turtle*

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

The mechanism of acidification by the urinary bladder of the water turtle was studied in an in vitro system which permitted control and measurement of electrical and concentration driving forces. The rate of hydrogen ion secretion was measured by means of a pH stat technique in the absence of exogenous carbon dioxide and bicarbonate.
