The absolute values for oxygen consumption (A) were calculated with various diffusion coefficients (D) for the three different activity states of the hippocampal CA3 network, i.e., absence of spiking (TTX), spontaneous network activity (SPON), and gamma oscillations (GAM). The values are provided in units, mm Hg/s, and mmol/L per minute.
