Abstract
The content of dissolved oxygen was determined by four independent methods in a series of non-aqueous or heterogenous systems. The Lex-O2-Content Analyzer represents a fast and simple apparatus that employs a coulometric oxygen assay with Hersch cell detection. A comparison of the results with different methods demonstrates the reliability of the Lex-O2 in the determination of oxygen dissolved in heterogeneous or non-aqueous systems. Therefore, this apparatus can be recommended for the measurement of oxygen in oxygenator or perfusion fluids, as well as in blood substitutes or other oxygen transporting systems.
