The chemistry of respiration: Antoine Lavoisier carries out an experiment to study the oxygen content of air exhaled from a man’s lungs. Lavoisier’s wife Marie-Anne makes notes. She also created the engraving from which this image was taken. Oxygen cylinders. Art restoration with oxygen – c...
If both the volume of exhaled air and its oxygen content are measured, the amount of oxygen consumed in a given time can be calculated. The amount of carbon dioxide produced can also be measured and the ratio of the carbon dioxide produced to the oxygen consumed (the ‘respiratory quotient...

Alternatively, the oxygen content can be reduced by adsorption of oxygen from the ambient air or by adding a low oxygen gas to air taken from the environment. This low oxygen gas may be stored nitrogen or stored gas which is low in oxygen, or it may be derived from the exhaled air ...
Fig. 1. Partial pressure of oxygen achieved by the embryo is strictly related to the oxygen content of inspired air, alveolar oxygen content, partial pressure of oxygen in the mother and placental fetal gas exchange. Changes at any of these stages will inevitably affect embryo/fetal/newborn ox...

ofoxygen saturationand pressure. Some devices already provide sufficiently accurate data on oxygen pressure to have been put into widespread clinical use. However, important physiologic and technologic barriers must be overcome for the development of a useful device for measuringcarbon dioxide contentand ...
thus ensuring that proper oxygen content is present for the next breath. Strictly speaking, reservoir bag masks are partial-rebreather-type masks because a small portion of the patient's exhaled breath remains in the mask due to the physical inability to exhaust all of the mask's volume. Addit...
