  2. Liquid breathing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_breathing

    Although total liquid ventilation (TLV) with completely liquid-filled lungs can be beneficial, [9] the complex liquid-filled tube system required is a disadvantage compared to gas ventilation—the system must incorporate a membrane oxygenator, heater, and pumps to deliver to, and remove from the lungs tidal volume aliquots of conditioned perfluorocarbon (PFC).

    One proposed method is the use of liquid breathing with a membrane oxygenator to solve the problem of carbon dioxide retention, the major limiting factor in liquid breathing. [1] [2] [dubious – discuss] It is thought that a system such as this would allow for diving without risk of decompression sickness. [3]

    Clear liquid fasting includes water, juices without pulp, carbonated beverages, clear tea, and black coffee. [4] Ingestion of water 2 hours prior to a procedure results in smaller gastric volumes and higher gastric pH when compared with those who ingested > 4 hours prior. The volume of liquid is less important than the type of liquid ingested. [4]

A high heat capacity (leading to higher environmental temperature stability). Water is a room-temperature liquid leading to a large population of quantum transition states required to overcome reaction barriers.

    In the heterolactic pathway, it produces lactic acid as well as ethanol and carbon dioxide. [7] Lactic acid fermentation is relatively inefficient. The waste products lactic acid and ethanol have not been fully oxidized and still contain energy, but it requires the addition of oxygen to extract this energy.
