Equations and Data for O2 and CO2 solubility in water, normal saline, human & Ox plasma. This model uses individual fit data to express the O2 and CO2 solubility in various biological solutions. Please refer to the Notes tab for further details on the model and files.
Description
Calculates the oxygen and carbon dioxide solubility across a physiolgical range of temperatures through various media (water, 155 mM normal saline, human & Ox plasma. O2 = AO2 *exp(-O2k1 *t) + BO2 *exp(-O2k2 *t). CO2= ACO2*exp(-CO2k1*t) + BCO2*exp(-CO2k2*t).
