Questions

Question (1)
Question
There is possibility to measure oxygen kinetics automatically by the system!!! - we can just mark steady state phase. The software calculate oxygen deficit and TAU time response. When I read journal articles most of authors use some equations in order to calculate oxygen kinetics phases. What is the proper method in order to collect data? is there any software or excel designed format for help n this case??
