  2. Pulse oximetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_oximetry

    A pulse oximeter probe applied to a person's finger. A pulse oximeter is a medical device that indirectly monitors the oxygen saturation of a patient's blood (as opposed to measuring oxygen saturation directly through a blood sample) and changes in blood volume in the skin, producing a photoplethysmogram that may be further processed into other measurements.

  3. Superoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superoxide

    In chemistry, a superoxide is a compound that contains the superoxide ion, which has the chemical formula O − 2. [1] The systematic name of the anion is dioxide(1−).The reactive oxygen ion superoxide is particularly important as the product of the one-electron reduction of dioxygen O 2, which occurs widely in nature. [2]

  4. Oxygen saturation (medicine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_saturation_(medicine)

    Arterial blood oxygen levels below 80 percent may compromise organ function, such as the brain and heart, and should be promptly addressed. Continued low oxygen levels may lead to respiratory or cardiac arrest. Oxygen therapy may be used to assist in raising blood oxygen levels. Oxygenation occurs when oxygen molecules (O 2) enter the tissues ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singlet_oxygen

    A third method liberates singlet oxygen via phosphite ozonides, which are, in turn, generated in situ such as triphenyl phosphite ozonide. [23] [24] Phosphite ozonides will decompose to give singlet oxygen: [25] (RO) 3 P + O 3 → (RO) 3 PO 3 (RO) 3 PO 3 → (RO) 3 PO + O 2 (1 Δ g) An advantage of this method is that it is amenable to non ...

  7. Oxygen compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_compounds

    Oxygen forms heteropoly acids and polyoxometalate ions with tungsten, molybdenum and some other transition metals, such as phosphotungstic acid (H 3 PW 12 O 40) and octadecamolybdophosphoric acid (H 6 P 2 Mo 18 O 62). Oxygen can form oxides with heavier noble gases xenon and radon, although this needs indirect methods.
