Objective: To examine the effectiveness of pH analysis of fetal scalp blood compared with lactate analysis in identifying hypoxia in labour to prevent acidaemia at birth. Design: Randomised controlled ...

This article describes a simple method to determine the optimum pH for the activity of one enzyme in a coupled enzyme assay. Decoupling of the two-step reaction is achieved by heat denaturing the ...

The pH of blood refers to how acidic it is. Changes to blood pH can signal underlying medical issues, including metabolic acidosis, respiratory acidosis, metabolic alkalosis, and respiratory alkalosis ...
