ABSTRACT
It was found that no effect of increase in dermal blood flow depended solely on HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup> or CO<sub>3</sub><sup>2-</sup>, but on CO<sub>2</sub> gas dissolved in water.<br>The artificial CO<sub>2</sub> bath was prepared with sodium bicarbonate and citric acid, mixing simply in plain water at 38-40°C.<br>Thermal efficacy was confirmed by a rise in temperature of oral, finger tip and forehead respectively, and by a high transepidermal water loss (TWL) in consequence of increase in dermal blood flow, compared to a plain bathing.<br>A remarkable effect in artificial CO<sub>2</sub> bathing of 400-800ppm has been well-known clinically, however, a substantial increase in dermal blood flow has observed with artificial CO<sub>2</sub>-bathing of 59.8ppm or greater in this study, so that a CO<sub>2</sub>-bathing using the preparation would be popularized.
