    This study introduces a novel membrane thin-layer oxygenator for isolated small animal heart experiments. Its design ensures efficient oxygenation, suitable for both arrested and working hearts in research and organ preservation.

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Cardiovascular Research
    • Physiology

    Context:

    • Isolated organ perfusion is crucial for studying cardiac function and metabolism.
    • Existing oxygenators face limitations in efficiency and volume for small animal models.
    • Developing advanced perfusion devices is essential for experimental accuracy.

    Purpose:

    • To describe the design and function of a new membrane thin-layer oxygenator.
    • To evaluate the oxygenation capacity of the device for isolated heart experiments.
    • To compare its advantages over traditional direct oxygenation methods.

    Summary:

    • A novel membrane thin-layer oxygenator with a small filling volume (7.5 ml) and large exchange surface (980 cm²) was developed.
    • Optimal performance at 0.15 mm gage and 15 ml/minute flow achieved significant oxygenation levels (0-570 torr, up to 646 torr).

  • Diffusion capacity proved sufficient for both Langendorff and working heart models, confirmed by rat heart oxygen consumption measurements.
  • Impact:

    • This oxygenator enhances experimental organ perfusion for metabolic, functional, and preservation studies.
    • Its design offers advantages over direct oxygenation, including gas-solution separation.
    • The device's principles also lend themselves to application as a thin-layer dialysator.
