Abstract
During the last few years O2 supply of tumor tissue has very carefully been investigated using GULLINO’ s model of a “tissue isolated” implantation tumor (GULLINO and GRANTHAM, 1961; GÜNTHER et al., 1972; VAUPEL et al., 1971; VAUPEL, 1974). We analysed the O2 supply for a DS-Carcinosarcoma in the rat kidney by two methods:
-
1.
direct measurement of O2 pressures in the tissue by means of gold micro-electrodes,
-
2.
PO2 calculation according to diffusion laws considerring the experimentally determined parameters in the arterial and venous blood.
