31P nuclear magnetic resonance study of variations in intra-erythrocytic ATP concentration and pH induced by surgical trauma.
Variations in intracellular pH and ATP concentrations in erythrocytes were studied in patients undergoing a mild surgical intervention. Intra-erythrocytic pH was decreased at the end of the operation; ATP concentrations concomitantly increased, but not highly significantly. These variables returned to their initial values by 20 h after the end of surgery.
