  • Title: Effect of metabolic acidosis on pulmonary microcirculation in the cat.
    Author: Sada K, Shirai M, Ninomiya I.
    Journal: Jpn J Physiol; 1987; 37(3):539-43. PubMed ID: 3682401.
    Abstract:
    Using a new X-ray TV system, we studied the effects of metabolic acidosis, produced by intravenous injection of lactic acid, on internal diameter (ID; 100-500 micron), flow velocity, and volume flow in pulmonary microcirculation of anesthetized cats. We found that metabolic acidosis decreased the ID of arteries by 21%, whereas it increased flow velocity by 28% but not volume flow.
