A team of researchers, led by Professor Chae Un Kim from the Department of Physics at UNIST, has successfully tracked the ...

In an evolutionarily conserved signaling pathway, 'soluble' adenylyl cyclases (sACs) synthesize the ubiquitous second messenger cyclic adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (cAMP) in response to ...

Baking soda — or sodium bicarbonate — is a salt consisting of sodium and bicarbonate ions. It usually appears as a white crystalline solid or a fine powder. Tablets and capsules containing ...

Carbon dioxide from the atmosphere dissolves in waterways, forming bicarbonate ions and other compounds that change water chemistry, with possible harmful effects on aquatic organisms. In addition ...

These hydrogen ions are released as the level of Pa co 2 in blood in muscle capillaries decreases when the blood flow to muscles is improved, and hence their bicarbonate buffer system works more ...

Carbon dioxide reacts with water to produce carbonic acid. The double arrow means that carbonic acid breaks down pretty readily to form carbon dioxide and water again. A hydrogen atom from the ...

Figure 1 shows the relation observed between pCO 2 and hydrogen ion concentration [H +].It can be seen that the latter increases in direct proportion to the rise in the former. The calculated ...

The fact that at least one species of coral uses bicarbonate ions bodes well, says Comeau. "Hopefully this will limit the effect of ocean acidification," he says.
