Example sentences for: bicarbonate

How can you use “bicarbonate” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Similar to the gastric environment, bicarbonate is secreted in the esophagus and may enter the esophagus from salivary secretions.

  • This may be the case as GABA can increase intracellular proton levels by intensifying bicarbonate ion conductance through a GABA-gated channel [ 15 ] which may act as a "developmental handshake" and regulate neuronal differentiation [ 16 ] . The chloride channel, an integral part of the GABA a receptor, has been implicated in embryonic development [ 17 ] . GABA receptors are first seen at the time the neural tube formation [ 18 ] . Binding sites to GABA agonists and antagonists and the expression of GABA receptor mRNAs are seen starting at 4 days of development and peak at 10-15 days, corresponding to the time of neural tube formation [ 19 ] . Many neurotransmitters, including GABA, are growth factor candidates for the CNS [ 20 21 22 ] .

  • NBCs are also responsible for electrogenic transepithelial bicarbonate cotransport in kidney proximal tubules [ 4, 5].

  • Other limiting factors in gastric tonometry are related to feeding [ 22, 23] and the large lumen of the stomach, requiring longer time for intralu-minal contents to equilibrate with intramucosal P CO 2 . Moreover, in the presence of low gastric pH, secretion of bicarbonate leads to intraluminal production of carbon dioxide [ 39].

  • Examples of donor-acceptor combinations might include: simple sugars and/or amino acids or other organic molecules in the presence of oxygen or nitrate (organisms capable of heterotrophic respiration), hydrogen and ferric ions or oxidized iron minerals (chemoautotrophic hydrogen oxidizers), organic acids and ferric ions or oxidized iron minerals (heterotrophic iron reducers), bicarbonate/carbonate and trace minerals in the presence and absence of light (photosynthetic organisms), carbon dioxide and a reduced metal such as ferrous ions (chemoautotrophs), ammonium ion and bicarbonate/carbonate (ammonia oxidizers), etc.
