Abstract

The goal of this work was to suggest a method for measuring the total rate of oxygen consumption by an isolated perfused rat liver. This method involves calculation of the rates of oxygen consumption by the blood stream and through the liver surface. The two independently determined values are then summed up to determine the total consumption rate. Experimental results obtained by this method are in good agreement with the results obtained previously using the manometric method of measurement of the oxygen consumption rate.
