Continuous In Vivo Monitoring of the Oxygen Concentration in Tissues

Аннотация

Abstract—The kinetics of delayed fluorescence and phosphorescence of xanthene dyes in mouse tissues under the pulse-periodic excitation of molecules was studied in vivo and in vitro. The advantages of continuous monitoring of oxygen content in tissues by the kinetics of delayed fluorescence caused by singlet–triplet annihilation of singlet oxygen with triplet excitation of fluorophore are demonstrated. A method is proposed for determining the time of recovery of the concentration of oxygen consumed in tissues in vivo and in vitro during photodynamic processes.
