Title: HYPERBARIC EXPOSURE OF MICE TO PRESSURES OF 60 TO 90 ATMOSPHERES. Author: MEMBERY JH, LINK EA. Journal: Science; 1964 Jun 05; 144(3623):1241-2. PubMed ID: 14150332. Abstract: Albino mice breathing helium-oxygen mixtures remained in good condition for periods of 1 to 13 hours at pressure-equivalent depths of 396 to 914 meters of sea water. They were successfully decompressed to normal atmospheric pressure in less than 5 hours. There were no immediate or delayed adverse effects that could be attributed to the hyperbaric helium-oxygen environment. An occasional death was attributable to hypoxia or the decompression procedure.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
