Aquatic Respiration Rate Measurements at Low Oxygen Concentrations
Despite its huge ecological importance, microbial oxygen respiration in pelagic waters is little studied, primarily due to methodological difficulties. Respiration measurements are challenging because of the required high resolution of oxygen concentration measurements. Recent improvements in oxygen sensing techniques bear great potential to overcome these limitations. Here we compare 3 differe...
متن کاملAquatic nitrogen transformations at low oxygen concentrations.
Nitrite and nitrous oxide made up 40% of the hypolimnetic dissolved inorganic nitrogen in mesotrophic Lake Rotoiti, New Zealand, prior to hypolimnetic anoxia. Up to 120 mg of N m-3 as nitrite and 20 mg of N m-3 as nitrous oxide accumulated, whereas dissolved-oxygen concentrations remained between 1.0 and 0.2 g m-3 and were totally consumed when the hypolimnion became completely anoxic. Assays o...
متن کاملMitochondrial respiration at low levels of oxygen and cytochrome c.
In the intracellular microenvironment of active muscle tissue, high rates of respiration are maintained at near-limiting oxygen concentrations. The respiration of isolated heart mitochondria is a hyperbolic function of oxygen concentration and half-maximal rates were obtained at 0.4 and 0.7 microM O(2) with substrates for the respiratory chain (succinate) and cytochrome c oxidase [N,N,N,N',N'-t...
متن کاملGrowth of mammalian cells at high oxygen concentrations.
Oxygen, although essential to the growth of mammalian cells in vitro and in vivo, has been widely reported to be toxic at concentrations at or above the oxygen concentration in culture medium equilibrated with air (approximately 200 microM). We were therefore surprised to note that a diploid human B-cell line (TK6) was able to proliferate normally while exposed to 380 microM-oxygen. This observ...
متن کاملOxidative stress occurs in perfused rat liver at low oxygen tension by mechanisms involving peroxynitrite.
Ethanol increases free radical formation; however, it was recently demonstrated that it also causes extensive hypoxia in rat liver in vivo. To address this issue, it was hypothesized that peroxynitrite formed in normoxic periportal regions of the liver lobule has its reactivity enhanced in hypoxic pericentral regions where the pH is lower. Via this pathway, peroxynitrite could lead to free radi...
