Extremely high pH in biological systems: a model for carbonate transport

J. A. Dow The pH profiles along the midgut of several lepidopteran species are described in detail. The peak pH recorded (12.0) is the highest observed in a living system and is too high to be achieved by conventional bicarbonate transport. By calculating the rate of net alkali transport in vivo, it...
