Camphor has been found to decrease the rate of oxygen consumption by rat kidney mitochondria. The rate of oxygen consumption is nearly halved by the addition of 8 X 10(-3) M camphor. It is suggested that camphor may be of use in oxygenating tumours prior to radiotherapy.
已发现樟脑可降低大鼠肾线粒体的耗氧率。添加8×10⁻³M的樟脑后,耗氧率几乎减半。有人提出,樟脑在放疗前对肿瘤进行氧合方面可能有用。
