Oxygen consumption, measurement single measurements

Figure 1. Glass cuvettes of 0.20-0.24-ml volume and 4-mm path, for (A) repetitive or (B) single measurements of the oxygen consumption. See text for description.

Fig. 20. a Results from the simultaneous measurements of oxygen consumption and whole body absolute rates of protein synthesis of cod made from starving animals and at various time points after feeding sand eels (Lyndon et al. unpubl.). b Relationship between mean absolute rates of protein synthesis and mean oxygen consumption for fasted, continuously fed and fasted crabs at 3, 9 and 16 h after a single meal. (Houlihan et al. 1990b) c Relationship between absolute rates of protein synthesis and oxygen consumption for Mytilus edulis (Hawkins et al. 1989)... 

From the experimental point of view, the OSC is determined by measuring the O2 consumed by the catalyst after reduction under isothermal conditions. This consumption is mostly determined by using the oxygen pulse technique. Re oxidation temperatures ranging from 700 K (354) up to 773 K (359) are typically applied. In accordance with the results reported in Table 4.3, the above quoted range, and even lower temperatures ensure the complete re-oxidation of ceria. The same is true for ceria-containing mixed oxides in which the alio-cation shows a single redox state (Zr", ...
