title: Measurement of oxygen and nitric oxide levels in vitro and in vivo: relationship to postoperative adhesions.
abstract: This article demonstrates the ability to measure the actual oxygen and nitric oxide levels in cultured fibroblasts established from normal peritoneum and adhesion tissues with and without hypoxia treatment and to measure levels of oxygen and nitric oxide in vivo in various tissues before and after abrasion.
