A blood oxygenator from indigenous materials: functional evaluation using sheep lung as deoxygenator

In vitro evaluation of an oxygenator is an integral part of its development. In order to obtain meaningful data the test conditions must be standardised. The natural lung offers a large surface area for gas exchange and provides excellent oxygenation over wide range of blood flows. Consequently it should act as a good deoxygenator too. Our experience in using a sheep lung for deoxygenation is described
