Defining physiological normoxia for improved translation of cell physiology to animal models and humans

TP Keeley, GE Mann - Physiological reviews, 2019 - journals.physiology.org
The extensive oxygen gradient between the air we breathe (Po2~ 21 kPa) and its ultimate
distribution within mitochondria (as low as~ 0.5–1 kPa) is testament to the efforts expended …

Technical feasibility and physiological relevance of hypoxic cell culture models

J Pavlacky, J Polak - Frontiers in endocrinology, 2020 - frontiersin.org
Hypoxia is characterized as insufficient oxygen delivery to tissues and cells in the body and
