What's In A Goat Name. When we get a new goat, either by one being born on our farm, or if we purchase one, a lot of thought goes into naming him or her. We have had a few that came with names that we kept, but mostly even purchased ones had no name. Sometimes it will take several days of observing the goat before a name is chosen. Observing your new goat for a few days will give you a lot of insight into their unique personality. Each one of my goats has their own quirks and habits. Some like their backs scratched, some like to be scratched right between the horns.
Phosphate buffered saline (abbreviated as PBS) is a buffer solution commonly used in biological research. It is a salty solution containing sodium chloride, sodium phosphate, and (in some formulations) potassium chloride and potassium phosphate. The buffer helps to maintain a constant pH. The osmolarity and ion concentrations of the solution usually match those of the human body (isotonic).
The phosphate buffer system is NOT an important blood buffer as its concentration is too low. The concentration of phosphate in the blood is so low that it is quantitatively unimportant. Phosphates are important buffers intracellularly and in urine where their concentration is higher..2.3 The Bicarbonate Buffer System. The major buffer system in the ECF is the CO 2 -bicarbonate buffer system. This is responsible for about 80% of extracellular buffering. It is the most important ECF buffer for metabolic acids but it cannot buffer respiratory acid-base disorders.
