Oxygen transfer in three-phase airlift and stirred tank reactors using silicone oil as transfer vector
The use of organic liquids as vectors to enhance mass transfer has been applied since the 1970s. However, mass transfer in three-phase reactors is only partially understood. This paper aimed to characterize oxygen transfer in three-phase reactors containing air as gas, silicone oil as vector andwater as aqueous phase. Amass transfermodel that considers separately air/vector, vector/water and ai...
متن کاملHemoglobin-based oxygen carriers
Transfusable fluids that may be used as alternatives to red blood cell transfusion offer the promise of preserving tissue perfusion and minimizing hypoxic cellular damage, and this promise may soon be fulfilled. Clinical testing of hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers has faced and met challenges involving molecular design, safety, efficacy, and regulatory requirements. Three leading candidates hav...
متن کاملOxygen transfer rate during the production of alginate by Azotobacter vinelandii under oxygen-limited and non oxygen-limited conditions
BACKGROUND The oxygen transfer rate (OTR) and dissolved oxygen tension (DOT) play an important role in determining alginate production and its composition; however, no systematic study has been reported about the independent influence of the OTR and DOT. In this paper, we report a study about alginate production and the evolution of the molecular mass of the polymer produced by a wild-type A. v...
متن کاملThe Design of Blood Substitutes: Oxygen Carriers
Hospitals throughout the world currently rely solely on allogeneic blood (also referred to as donor blood) for transfusions. Estimates put worldwide blood demand somewhere between 75 and 90 million units per year 1. Canada’s requirements account for 800 000 units per year and the United States for 12 million2,3. One unit of blood represents approximately a volume of 450 mL. Based on current req...
متن کاملEnhancing oxygen solubility using hemoglobin- and perfluorocarbon-based carriers.
The objective of this paper is to review the properties of fluids capable to enhance oxygen transport and transfer and recent developments in this field. This paper reviews and compares two different approaches, which could be used to solve the important problem of oxygen supply in some cell and tissue cultures: 1) hemoglobin-based and 2) perfluorocarbon-based (PFC) oxygen carriers. Several typ...
