Description
The oxygen solubility, SO2 [ยตM/kPa], expresses the oxygen concentration in solution in equilibrium with the oxygen pressure in a gas phase, as a function of temperature and composition of the solution. SO2 is 10.56 ยตM/kPa in pure water at 37 ยฐC. At standard barometric pressure (100 kPa), the oxygen concentration at air saturation is 207.3 ยตM at 37 ยฐC (19.6 kPa partial oxygen pressure). In MiR06 and serum, the corresponding saturation concentrations are 191 and 184 ยตM. The oxygen solubility depends on temperatue and the concentrations of solutes in solution.
