    TOTAL CO2 mM Finally we may take the case of all the proteins of nor¬ mal blood pins carbonic acid and base. We now select 53 millimoles of base, 50 grams of serum protein, and 147 grams of oxyhemoglobin as the concentrations per liter. The system corresponds to blood, except that the solution is homogeneous. The results of the ensuing calculation are given by table 4. TABLE 4.
