Oxygen Transport to Tissue — III

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 94))

Abstract

Under normal blood flow extraction of O2 by the liver is less than 40% of the oxygen supplied. This ratio of consumed to supplied O2 increases drastically when O2 supply diminishes with blood flow. For instance an O2 extraction greater than 95% is reached during relative ischaemia (Lutz et al, 1975). The experiments reported below were performed to test the mechanism of this extremely high O2 extraction, which is seen otherwise only in the coronary circulation.
