In vivo Oximetry Using EPR and India Ink

Recent advances in electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) oximetry have established the use of the particulate materials fusinite and lithium phthalocyanine (LiPc) as probes for measurement of oxygen tensions in tissues in vivo with a sensitivity and accuracy that is relevant for studying pathophysiological processes. India ink, another potentially very useful new probe for EPR oximetry, shares the critical properties of fusinite and LiPc and has the additional advantage of already having been widely used clinically with no apparent toxicity. The line width is particularly sensitive to changes in oxygen tension of less than 30 mmHg; in this range the line broadening/unit of pO2 is much greater than that of fusinite and LiPc. Over the range of biological conditions that can occur in vivo, the response of the EPR spectrum of India ink to pO2 is independent of pH, oxidants, reductants, and the nature of the medium. In this paper we describe the relevant properties of India ink and its use to measure pO2 in vivo in experimental animals and a human subject.
