Human lymphocytes stimulated with phytohaemagglutinin in vitro show maximal 14 C‐thymidine incorporation when the gas phase of the cultures contains 20% O 2 . The rate of DNA synthesis is more affected by hyperoxic conditions than by hypoxia. Cell viability, defined by dye exclusion, is considerably less dependent on pO 2 than is cellular replication.
