Molecular oxygen peaks (MOPs) in blood: Their discovery investigation and implications

Molecular oxygen peaks (MOPs) in blood: Their discovery investigation and implications Addition of phenol to bovine cell bioreactors had startling, fascinating results. In a reactor closed from the ambient environment, non-equilibrium-dependent releases of molecular oxygen from blood prompts further investigation. These oxygen releases, dubbed here molecular oxygen peaks (MOPs), cosist of a discrete increase followed by a decrease in oxygen concentration. MOPs usually last upwards of one hour. The release of oxygen as defined in the MOPs has not been reported before and implies an oxygen storage characteristic within blood that has not yet been explored.

Abstract

Addition of phenol to bovine cell bioreactors had startling, fascinating results. In a reactor closed from the ambient environment, non-equilibrium-dependent releases of molecular oxygen from blood prompts further investigation. These oxygen releases, dubbed here molecular oxygen peaks (MOPs), cosist of a discrete increase followed by a decrease in oxygen concentration. MOPs usually last upwards of one hour. The release of oxygen as defined in the MOPs has not been reported before and implies an oxygen storage characteristic within blood that has not yet been explored. The nonequilibrium nature of these MOPs implies the existence of a catalytic energy barrier.
