Characteristics of Blood C. Specific Gravity of Blood
Whole blood: 1.0621 at 4°C and 1.0506 at 37°C
A. Physical characteristics Females: 1.054-5 at ages 65 to 75 and 1.006
Color (Red) maximum specific gravity attained at birth.
~
Red Orange - Hemoglobin bound to oxygen copy Males: 1.058-5 at ages 35-45 and 1.006
(oxyhemoglobin) maximum specific gravity attained a birth.
~
Darker Red - without oxygen (deoxyhemoglobin) Plasma: 1.0310 at 4°C and 1.0205 at 37°C
Packed red cells: 1.093 - 1.095
Sterility
~
38°C D. pH
~
If there is no microbes found because it causes Acidimia: 7.35
infections. Alkalemia: 7.45
State in circulation
~
Pulmonary circulation - right side of heart receives
oxygen-poor blood (deoxygenated)
~
Systematic circulation - left side of
heart receives oxygenated blood.
Viscosity
v
Denser and more viscous than water.
B. Volume of Blood
% of total body weight: 7-8 %
Males: about 12.2 pints (5.71) in average-size male
Females: (lower blood volume than men) about 9 pints
(4.31) of blood in average-sized female.
