From: Injectable Phosphorescence-based Oxygen Biosensors Identify Post Ischemic Reactive Hyperoxia

Overview of experimental design. Day 0: bilateral and symmetric subcutaneous implantation of biosensors, with unilateral ligation of femoral vessels on one leg. A similar scheme without the surgery was performed for subsequent measurement days. Days 28 & 84: simultaneous real-time measurement with three techniques (biosensor, NIR spectroscopy, laser Doppler) while the rats were subjected to a series of hypoxic challenges and tourniquet application as illustrated.
