Sentence examples for buffering power from inspiring English sources
The pHi dependence of intracellular buffer capacity (βi; i.e. the buffering power of all non-HCO3, non-CO2 buffers) was computed using the NH4 pulse method, and the actual activity of the exchanger in terms of proton flux rate (mmol/l H+/min) was determined by multiplying the rates of pHi change by the cells' intrinsic buffering capacity (βi) at the pHi at which the measurement was taken.
External pH was changed using a mixture of three buffers to minimise changes in buffering power.
Furthermore, the buffer in general has more buffering power in the acidic region (the right side of the chamber) than in basic region (the left side of the chamber) due to the higher starting concentration for HPO4 2– (4 times higher than that of H2PO4 –).
These cells are more metabolically active and produce H+ at a higher rate, compared to PC3M (data not shown) and hence, we hypothesize that they may be inhibitable with more buffering power, such as that of non-volatile buffers.
The effects of changing pHo were assessed by changing the superfusate pH using a mixture of three different buffers (with different dissociation constants) to minimise changes in buffering power.
We have done most of our experiments in HEPES-buffered Ringer, although it is known that CO2-bicarbonate-buffered solutions greatly increase intracellular pH buffering while reducing pH buffering power extracellularly [28,29].
Next, we increased the proton-buffering power of mitochondria with the permeable weak base NH4Cl, a procedure expected to alter the kinetics of proton but not of superoxide changes.
The calculated buffer curve shows that Ca buffering was decreased by thapsigargin and, on average the buffer power decreased by 16±5%5% [156 ± 28 to 131 ± 25% (n = 10, P < 0.05)].
The fact that ISO decreases buffer power in PLN-KO mice (where this SERCA-dependent effect would not be present) suggests that some additional action of ISO must decrease Ca buffering.
Yet both the politicians and the pundits feel obliged to put a transactional value on the relationship: the growing middle class and its appetite for our beef, financial services, university degrees and holidays; assistance in countering refugee flows and terrorists; buffering Chinese power.
In this paper, a finned heat pipe assisted passive heat sink based on a newly emerging high performance phase change material (PCM), the low melting point metal (LMPM), was developed for thermal buffering of high power electronics which works intermittently with heat generation rate up to 1000 W (10 W/cm2).
