    … shift in its resonance frequency from the gas-phase (barrier - 198 ppm, RBC - 217 ppm). These unique resonances are collectively called the dissolved-phase of xenon. As the pathway taken by xenon to reach the RBCs is identical to that of oxygen, this dissolved-phase offers a non-invasive probe …
