Oxygen Consumption of Lactobacilli. I. Relation of Oxygen Consumption with Carbon Sources in the Medium

I-11: The Use of Oxygen Consumption for Oocyte and Embryo Selection

Assisted human reproduction is characterized by a high variability in results regarding pregnancy and birth rates. In fact, in a cohort of fertilized oocytes from the same stimulation cycle, the development rate varies drastically, even though produced at the same time and under similar conditions. This variability results in large differences in implantation potential of human embryos develope...

Is oxygen consumption of surviving tissues determined by the oxygen tension of the suspension medium?

Oxygen tension in the suspension medium and oxygen uptake of the isolated diaphragm of the mouse have been determined simultaneously with systematic variation of shaking frequency and oxygen concentration of the gas phase. Oxygen tension in the suspension medium reaches its final value during the usual equilibration period of 10 minutes and remains constant for the whole measuring period. Each ...

Carbon dioxide elimination and oxygen consumption in mechanically ventilated children.

BACKGROUND Accurate measurement of carbon dioxide elimination (V̇CO2 ) and oxygen consumption (V̇O2 ) at the bedside may help titrate nutritional and respiratory support in mechanically ventilated patients. Continuous V̇CO2 monitoring is now available with many ventilators. However, because normative data are sparsely available in the literature, we aimed to describe the range of V̇CO2 and V̇O2 valu...
