Abstract

Literary data on pH in a brain, cerebrospinal liquid (SL) and blood of human and animals (mammals) are compared. Coming from the found out fact that in a brain pH is below, than in blood (pH in SL, obviously, occupies intermediate state) the possibility of hydrogen ions participation in organization of brain work, in particular, their role in informative processes is discussed.
