Chapter
Comparisons of Measurements of pO2 in Tissue In Vivo by EPR Oximetry and Micro-Electrodes
Polarographic micro-electrode measurements are very useful for measuring pO2 in vivo, especially for measurements of the variation of pO2 within a tumor (1,2,8). This method has se...

Chapter
Effects of Ketamine/Xylazine and Pentobarbital Anesthesia on Cerebral Tissue Oxygen Tension, Blood Pressure, and Arterial Blood Gas in Rats
General anesthesia is needed in many animal experiments in order to carry the studies out in an effective and appropriate manner. The concentration of oxygen in tissues is often a critical variable in many of ...
