THE INFLUENCE OF THE STAGE OF TOOTH DEVELOPMENT ON THE OXYGEN QUOTIENT OF NORMAL BOVINE DENTAL PULP

The mean QO2 of bovine dental pulp was found to be 2.04 ± 0.39, during active dentinogeneses, but was reduced to 0.47 ± 0.15, after dentin formation had been completed. This tissue, generally, has the ability to maintain a reasonably level plane of respiration for as long as 11 hours in vitro without nutritive support. This capacity is greater than that of many of the more active tisues, and it is suggested that the pulpal matrix may function as a nutritional reservoir.
