buffer - a chemical or a combination of chemicals that can take up excess hydrogen ions (H+) or excess hydroxide ions (OH-). One of the most important buffers in the blood is a combination of carbonic acid (H2CO3) and bicarbonate ions (HCO3-). Anatomy of Nephron - has own blood supply: two capillary regions.
