Redesigned Apparatus for Anaerobic Measurement of Blood pH at Low Temperatures

Abstract
Bensinger, Thomas A., Metro, Judy, and Beutler, Ernest: Redesigned apparatus for anaerobic measurement of blood pH at low temperatures. Am. J. Clin. Pathol. 63: 264–268, 1975. A newly designed apparatus for anaerobic measurement of blood pH at low temperatures is presented. This apparatus features a larger glass electrode surface area, which is necessary to overcome the increased resistance of the glass as blood pH determinations at 0–15 C. are undertaken. Utilization of this equipment has confirmed the ΔpH per degree C. of whole blood to be 0.0156, while intracellular pH of blood has a ΔpH per degree C. of 0.0165.
