peripheral chemoreceptor in a sentence
Examples
- However, a change in plasma pH alone will not stimulate central chemoreceptors as H + are not able to diffuse across the blood brain barrier into the CSF . Only CO 2 levels affect this as it can diffuse across, reacting with H 2 O to form carbonic acid and thus decrease pH . Central chemoreception remains, in this way, distinct from peripheral chemoreceptors.
