Predictions of oxygen profiles (micromolar) in a channel and tissue space of a construct with cell density of 1 × 108 cell ml−1, 100-μm channel diameter and 100-μm wall-to-wall spacing. Perfused at a velocity of: (a) 490 μms−1 and (b) 1.35 mm s−1 with control medium (0% perfluorocarbon (PFC), left panels) and medium supplemented with 6.4% volume PFC emulsion (right panels); vertical lines designate channel walls. Adapted with modifications from ref. 32.
