Oxygen consumption by Phalaenopsis plantlets and Chrysanthemum cuttings as a function of temperature and time : model structure validation Ghent University
Phalaenopsis spp. and Chrysanthemum are ornamentals with an important economic value. Currently, quality loss during storage and transport of plantlets and cuttings is a limiting factor for spreading the workload, broadening the export range, and the use of slower but more environmentally friendly transport. In the agro-food sector, equilibrium modified atmosphere packaging has enhanced the shelf-life of minimally processed produce. The required ...
Oxygen consumption rate analysis of mitochondrial dysfunction caused by Bacillus cereus cereulide in Caco-2 and HepG2 cells Ghent University
The emetic syndrome of Bacillus cereus is a food intoxication caused by cereulide (CER) and manifested by emesis, nausea and in most severe cases with liver failure. While acute effects have been studied in the aftermath of food intoxication, an exposure to low doses of cereulide might cause unnoticed damages to the intestines and liver. The toxicity which relies on the mitochondrial dysfunction was assessed on Caco-2 and HepG2 cells after ...

Acclimation of Anabas testudineus (Bloch) to three test temperatures influences thermal tolerance and oxygen consumption Ghent University
Thermal tolerance and oxygen consumption rates of the catfish Horabagrus brachysoma (Gunther) acclimated to different temperatures Ghent University
Comparison of methods for measuring oxygen consumption in tumor cells in vitro KU Leuven
The oxygen consumption rate of tumor cells affects tumor oxygenation and response to therapies. Highly sensitive methods for determining cellular oxygen consumption are, therefore, needed to identify treatments that can modulate this parameter. We compared the performances of three different methods for measuring cellular oxygen consumption: electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) oximetry, the Clark electrode, and the MitoXpress fluorescent ...
VEGF-independent cell-autonomous functions of HIF-1α regulating oxygen consumption in fetal cartilage are critical for chondrocyte survival KU Leuven Ghent University
Fetal growth plate cartilage is non-vascularized, and chondrocytes largely develop in hypoxic conditions. We previously found that mice lacking the hypoxia inducible transcription factor HIF-1α in cartilage show massive death of centrally located, hypoxic chondrocytes. A similar phenotype was observed in mice with genetic ablation of either all or specifically the diffusible isoforms of VEGF, a prime angiogenic target of HIF-1α. Here, we ...
Pectoral fin beat frequency predicts oxygen consumption during spontaneous activity in a labriform swimming fish (**Embiotoca lateralis**) University of Antwerp
The objective of this study was to identify kinematic variables correlated with oxygen consumption during spontaneous labriform swimming. Kinematic variables (swimming speed, change of speed, turning angle, turning rate, turning radius and pectoral fin beat frequency) and oxygen consumption (MO2) of spontaneous swimming in Embiotoca lateralis were measured in a circular arena using video tracking and respirometry, respectively. The main variable ...
The SCOC database, a large, open, and global database with sediment community oxygen consumption rates Ghent University
Sediment community oxygen consumption (SCOC) rates provide important information about biogeochemical processes in marine sediments and the activity of benthic microorganisms and fauna. Therefore, several databases of SCOC data have been compiled since the mid-1990s. However, these earlier databases contained much less data records and were not freely available. Additionally, the databases were not transparent in their selection procedure, so ...
