Normal oxygen tension restored in the ischemic rat liver model by PEG-hemoglobin.

Abstract	Cell damage initiated during ischemia, as a result of oxygen depletion, continues during reperfusion, and recovery is dependent on the length of the ischemic period. This study investigates the effect of polyethylene glycol-modified hemoglobin (PEG-Hb) on recovery of tissue oxygen tension after induced ischemia.
