THE PROVISION OF RESPIRATORY GAS EXCHANGE FOR SMALL PRIMATES BY USE OF A PHOTOSYNTHETIC GAS EXCHANGER Preliminary Observation

摘要

The experiments reported here designed to determine to what extent the ex¬isting photosynthetic gas exchanger is capable of satisfying the respiratory requirements of a 3-kg. primate. The results of this experiment can be used to assess the “demand phenomenon” previously observed in experiments with mice (1), and to establish design criteria for larger photosynthetic gas exchangers
