Abstract
By order of the Ministry of Health of the USSR, the team of the Kazan Design Bureau designed and tested a new, closed-type apparatus for determination of basal metabolism. A distinctive feature of the new apparatus from similar apparatuses of other types (Douglas-Holden, Mole, etc.) is that it makes it possible to conduct basic metabolism tests in humans in three ways: with pure oxygen alone (bellows volume - 6 liters); with a gas mixture of 30 liters of atmospheric air and 6 liters of pure oxygen, with a chemical carbon dioxide absorber turned off, or with the same gas mixture with a carbon dioxide absorber turned on.
