Mean carbon dioxide tension in the brain after carbonic anhydrase inhibition

1. Measurements of the CO2 tensions in arterial blood, in blood from the superior sagittal sinus, in cisternal cerebrospinal fluid, and on the surface of the cerebral cortex were made in spontaneously breathing anaesthetized cats and rats after inhibition of carbonic anhydrase with acetazolamide in doses of 50‐150 mg/kg.
