Impact of Pancreatic Rat Islet Density on Cell Survival during Hypoxia

Table 2

Oxygen measurements at time 0 () and after 24 hours ( h) for each islet culture density (150, 300, and 600 IEQ/cm²) under normoxic (PO₂ 160 mmHg) and hypoxic (PO₂ 15 mmHg) conditions. The difference between and is represented by the values. The difference between densities within the same condition is represented by .
