Dry Ice Effect [Bioanalytics]
Dear Ohlbe!
Interesting. Even if CO2 diffuses through vial's stoppers, I would guess it would take a remarkably long time to diffuse into the sample (we are talking about penetrating a solid here). BTW, especially plasma's HCO3+ buffer system is a quite strong one.
❝ There have been some discussions about the possible effect of CO2 on the pH of the samples…
