• Total pressure exerted by a mixture of gases is the sum of the pressures exerted independently by each gas in the mixture
• The partial pressure of each gas is directly proportional to its percentage in the mixture
Basic Properties of Gases: Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures
![Page 3: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
• When a mixture of gases is in contact with a liquid, each gas will dissolve in the liquid in proportion to its partial pressure
• The amount of gas that will dissolve in a liquid also depends upon its solubility
• Various gases in air have different solubilities:– Carbon dioxide is the most soluble– Oxygen is 1/20th as soluble as carbon dioxide– Nitrogen is practically insoluble in plasma

Overview of Respiratory Exchange
![Page 5: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• Respiratory membranes:– Are only 0.5 to 1 m thick, allowing for efficient
gas exchange– Have a total surface area of about 60 m2 (40 times
that of one’s skin)– Thicken if lungs become waterlogged and
edematous, whereby gas exchange is inadequate and oxygen deprivation results
– Decrease in surface area with emphysema, when walls of adjacent alveoli break through
Surface Area and Thickness of the Respiratory Membrane

Gas Exchange
• To, temperature• S, solubility • mol. wt., molecular weight
of diffusing gas
• r, rate of diffusion• P, difference in partial
pressure (O2 or CO2)
• A, area of exchange membrane
• d, thickness of the membrane

Gas Exchange
• r, rate of diffusion
• P, difference in partial pressure (O2 or CO2)
• A, area of exchange membrane• d, distance
![Page 9: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Gas Exchange
• To maximize diffusion rate:– Maximize P – Maximize Area– Minimize distance.
• These result from evolutionary and physiological adaptation.
![Page 10: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Gas Exchange
• Constants– temperature (= body temperature)
– solubility (property of O2 or CO2)
– molecular weight (property of O2 or CO2)
• These don’t change.

Diffusion of Gases• Fick’s law of diffusion • dc V gas = - D X A -----
dx
V gas = rate of diffusion . A = area through which diffusion occurs.
D=Diffusion coefficient of gas dc/dx = concentration gradient
![Page 13: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Diffusivity (D)
• Each gas has unique value• Essentially a diffusion coefficient

Single Breath DLCO
• Single inspiration of a dilute CO mixture• 10 second breath-hold• Measure CO uptake using infrared detector to
compare inspiratory and expiratory concentrations

Diffusing Capacity of the Lung
Decreases with loss of surface area.Decreases with increasing membrane thicknessDecreases with ventilation/perfusion mismatching

• The factors promoting gas exchange between systemic capillaries and tissue cells are the same as those acting in the lungs– The partial pressures and diffusion gradients are
reversed– PO2 in tissue is always lower than in systemic arterial
blood– PO2 of venous blood draining tissues is 40 mm Hg and
PCO2 is 45 mm Hg
Internal Respiration
![Page 19: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
O2 Transport
• Molecular oxygen in the blood is either dissolved in the plasma (1.5%) or bound to hemoglobin w/i the RBCs (98.5%).
• Each Hb can bind 4 molecules of O2 and this binding is quite reversible.
• Hb containing bound O2 is oxyhemoglobin and Hb w/o O2 is deoxyhemoglobin.
• Carbon monoxide has an extremely high affinity for hemoglobin’s oxygen binding site
![Page 20: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
O2 Transport
• Loading and unloading of O2 is given by a simple reversible equation:
HHb+O2 HbO2 + H+
• O2 binding is “cooperative” – The binding of the 1st O2 molecule causes the Hb to change
shape which makes it easier for the 2nd O2 to bind. Binding of the 2nd O2 makes it easier for the 3rd and binding of the 3rd makes it easier for the 4th.
![Page 21: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
O2 Transport
• As O2 loading proceeds, the affinity of Hb for O2
• When Hb has 4 bound O2 molecules it is saturated. When it has 1,2, or 3 it’s unsaturated
• When the saturation of Hb is plotted against the Po2, we get the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve.
![Page 22: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
![Page 23: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• Hb-O2 dissociation curve is sigmoidal.
• Hb is almost completely saturated at a Po2 of 70mmHg.
• At pulmonary Po2 of 104mmHg, Hb is completely saturated.
• Even at the tissue Po2 of 40mmHg, Hb is still 75% saturated
![Page 24: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
UNDERSTANDING THE HB/O DISSOCIATION CURVE
• The plateau: Provides a margin of safety in the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood
• The steep portion: Small changes in Oxygen levels can cause significant changes in binding. This promotes release to the tissues.
![Page 25: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Factors affecting O2 binding
• As cellular metabolism proceeds, CO2, acids, and heat are all generated.
• As Pco2, [H+]Plasma, and temperature , the affinity Hb has for O2 will .
• All these factors shift the Hb-O2 dissociation curve to the right.
• The Bohr Effect
![Page 26: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Agents which shift the Hb/O Dissociation curve: The Bohr Effect
![Page 29: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
• Carbon dioxide is transported in the blood in three forms– Dissolved in plasma – 7 to 10% – Chemically bound to hemoglobin – 20% is carried
in RBCs as carbaminohemoglobin– Bicarbonate ion in plasma – 70% is transported as
bicarbonate (HCO3–)
Carbon Dioxide Transport
![Page 30: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• Carbon dioxide diffuses into RBCs and combines with water to form carbonic acid (H2CO3), which quickly dissociates into hydrogen ions and bicarbonate ions
• In RBCs, carbonic anhydrase reversibly catalyzes the conversion of carbon dioxide and water to carbonic acid

• At the tissues:– Bicarbonate quickly diffuses from RBCs into the
plasma– The chloride shift – to counterbalance the outrush of
negative bicarbonate ions from the RBCs, chloride ions (Cl–) move from the plasma into the erythrocytes
Transport and Exchange of Carbon Dioxide
![Page 33: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
• At the lungs, these processes are reversed– Bicarbonate ions move into the RBCs and bind
with hydrogen ions to form carbonic acid– Carbonic acid is then split by carbonic anhydrase
to release carbon dioxide and water– Carbon dioxide then diffuses from the blood into
the alveoli

• The amount of carbon dioxide transported is markedly affected by the PO2
• Haldane Effect: Increasing O2-saturation reduces CO2 content and shifts the CO2 dissociation curve to right. This is because, increasing PO2 leads to– Decrease in the formation of carbamino compound.– Release of H+ ions from the hemoglobin and resulting
in dehydration of HCO3-. These changes
take place in the lungs .
Haldane Effect

Carbon Dioxide Dissociation Curve
Over the normal physiological range (PCO2 = 30 to 55 mmHg and PO2 = 40 to 100 mmHg), the CO2 equilibrium curve is nearly linear. But, O2 equilibrium curve is highly nonlinear.

Respiratory System
• The respiratory system regulation of acid-base balance is a physiological buffering system
• There is a reversible equilibrium between:– Dissolved carbon dioxide and water– Carbonic acid and the hydrogen and bicarbonate
ions
CO2 + H2O H2CO3 H+ + HCO3¯
![Page 39: Respir8n 6](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062405/5560e0bad8b42a3d768b4a00/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Respiratory System• During carbon dioxide unloading, hydrogen ions
are incorporated into water• When hypercapnia or rising plasma H+ occurs:
– Deeper and more rapid breathing expels more carbon dioxide
– Hydrogen ion concentration is reduced• Alkalosis causes slower, more shallow breathing,
causing H+ to increase• Respiratory system impairment causes acid-base
imbalance (respiratory acidosis or respiratory alkalosis)
