Hyperbaric Treatment on Respiration Rate and Respiratory Quotient of Tomato

An experimental hyperbaric system was designed and built to explore the effect of hyperbaric treatment on the respiration rate (RR) and respiratory quotient (RQ) of tomato. It consists of five containers that can be individually pressurized from 1 to 9 atmabs. The respirometer was equipped with a flow meter, control valve, pressure transducer, CO2 and O2 gas analyzer, and type T thermocouples that are all connected to a data acquisition and...
