If not further qualified, it usually refers to acidity of the blood plasma. * The term acidemia describes the state of low blood pH, while acidosis is used to describe the processes leading to these states. Nevertheless, the terms are sometimes used interchangeably. The distinction may be relevant where a patient has factors causing both acidosis and alkalosis, wherein the relative severity of both determines whether the result is a high, low, or normal pH. * Acidosis is said to occur when arterial pH falls below 7.35 (except in the fetus see below), while its counterpart (alkalosis) occurs at a pH over 7.45.

In mammals, the normal pH of arterial blood lies betw |
