Rat livers have been perfused with a saline control medium or with a perfluorocarbon emulsion containing perfluorodecalin and N,N-perfluordiethylciclohexylamine, and the respiratory rates and transmembrane electrical potentials of mitochondria isolated following perfusion have been evaluated. The results indicate that the perfluorocarbon emulsion used, by providing a good oxygen supply to the perfused liver, allowed to preserve the efficiency of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.

Abstract
Rat livers have been perfused with a saline control medium or with a perfluorocarbon emulsion containing perfluorodecalin and N,N-perfluordiethylciclohexylamine, and the respiratory rates and transmembrane electrical potentials of mitochondria isolated following perfusion have been evaluated. The results indicate that the perfluorocarbon emulsion used, by providing a good oxygen supply to the perfused liver, allowed to preserve the efficiency of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.
