Dilution acidosis : the effects of hyperosmolality on acid-base balance and ventilation

The effects of acute osmotic changes on acid-base balance and respiratory control were studied in the Pekin duck, Anas platyrhynchos. Acute hyperosmolality following intravascular injection of essentially non-penetrating solutes such as NaCl or sucrose caused an increase in extracellular fluid volum...
