title: Oxygen solubilization in egg lecithin dispersed in distilled water and physiological electrolyte fluids.
abstract: Gaseous oxygen solubilization in egg lecithin dispersed in distilled water, saline, and a multi-ion physiological electrolyte solution was determined and compared to controls deficient in egg lecithin. Significant oxygen solubilization occurred in the presence of egg lecithin. Oxygen solubilization was significantly greater in saline and in the multi-ion physiological electrolyte solution than in distilled water.
