Introduction:
The regulation of the normal pH (potential of hydrogen) of the blood is done by balancing the ratio of HCO3− (bicarbonate ions) and H2CO3 (carbonic acid) in the blood. The normal ratio that remains between them is 20:1. The acid-base balance disturbance of the body can be determined by the
