Description
The oxygen solubility, SO2 [Β΅M/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 Β΅M/kPa in pure water at 37 Β°C. At standard barometric pressure (100 kPa), the oxygen concentration at air saturation is 207.3 Β΅M at 37 Β°C (19.6 kPa partial oxygen pressure). In MiR06 and serum, the corresponding saturation concentrations are 191 and 184 Β΅M. The oxygen solubility depends on temperatue and the concentrations of solutes in solution.
