The oxygenation state of hemoglobin (Hb) in the monkey forebrain was monitored continuously throughout nocturnal sleep using a near-infrared spectrophotometric technique. During rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, an increase in oxygenated Hb occurred concomitantly with a decrease in deoxygenated Hb, while no significant changes in Hb oxygenation were observed during slow wave sleep (SWS). A gradual increase in total Hb content was also observed to occur during each REM sleep episode but not during SWS.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007834 Lasers An optical source that emits photons in a coherent beam. Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation (LASER) is brought about using devices that transform light of varying frequencies into a single intense, nearly nondivergent beam of monochromatic radiation. Lasers operate in the infrared, visible, ultraviolet, or X-ray regions of the spectrum.

D001923 Brain Chemistry Changes in the amounts of various chemicals (neurotransmitters, receptors, enzymes, and other metabolites) specific to the area of the central nervous system contained within the head. These are monitored over time, during sensory stimulation, or under different disease states. Chemistry, Brain,Brain Chemistries,Chemistries, Brain
