Injectable oxygen particles are invented by Dr. John Kheir of Boston Children’s Hospital to help patients who are unable to breathe.

It means you can live without oxygen. Microparticles are the smallest particles made up of a layer of lipid (a single layer of lipid) surrounding a small bubble of oxygen gas in it.

In these particles, a small pocket of oxygen is surrounded by a fatty membrane. They are produced by mixing oxygen and fatty molecules with high-frequency sound waves and then combining the mixture with a liquid carrier.

Benefits:

These particles can maintain normal blood oxygen levels within seconds. They can keep patients alive for up to 30 minutes after the respiratory failure and can prevent brain damage or heart attack.
