A respirometer is a device used to measure the rate of respiration of a living organism by measuring its rate of exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
A simple respirometer designed to measure oxygen uptake or CO release consists of a sealed container with the living specimen together with a substance to absorb the carbon dioxide given off during respiration, such as soda lime pellets or cotton wads soaked with potassium hydroxide.
As changes in temperature or pressure can also affect the displacement of the manometric fluid, a second respirometer identical to the first except with a dead specimen (or something with the same mass as the specimen in place of the organism) is sometimes set up.

Before the test is begun, the intake valve is turned to permit the subject to breathe from the respirometer and the chart is set moving.
The respirometer records the data onto a chart on a revolving drum.
Fill the respirometer with 02 (make sure that the "free breathing" valve located on the mouthpiece is open - this closes an internal valve to the respirometer and prevents air loss).

These are summarized as general gas laws that state: PV=nRT where: P stands for pressure of the gas, V stands for the volume of the gas, n stands for the number of molecules of gas there are, R stands for the gas constant, and T stands for the temperature of the gas.
Pressure changes in the respirometer are directly relative to a change in the amount of gas there is in the respirometer as long as the volume and the temperature of the respirometer do not change.
Lastly, the equilibration period was identical for all the respirometers.

Use of the Warburg Respirometer to study Microbial Activity in Soils
THE respiratory activity of the micro-organisms in samples of soil, determined by estimating the evolution of carbon dioxide, has long been considered by soil microbiologists to be related to soil fertility
Along somewhat similar lines, our own studies suggest that the Warburg constant-volume respirometer may prove a valuable tool with which to examine the activities of soil organisms in the breakdown of soil organic matter, or to determine the effect of various treatments in modifying the behaviour of soil organisms.

The Collins respirometer was used to measure lung volumes, which are also illustrated in table 15-14 in Vander.
The added carbon dioxide is instead removed by the respirometer, and the continual removal of oxygen from the bell by the student manifests itself in a loss of volume from the bell and a gradual upward slant to the tracing.
To do this, we assumed that the amount of carbon dioxide removed by the ascarite (substance in the cannister that "scrubbed," or removed the carbon dioxide) was equal to the amount of oxygen consumed by the student.

The first section discusses the development and testing of a field respirometer system designed to measure water column respiration rates in quickly darkened samples at frequent intervals over a diel period.
The tri-hourly respiration and net production rate data gathered with the respirometer system are used to calculate short term changes in the apparent gross primary production rates over the diel period.
The results of experiments with the respirometer system show that water column respiration rates follow distinct diel patterns which are not simply correlated with light, temperature or primary production.

 Plotting Relationships in Biology: A Case of Cellular Respiration
In brief, the respirometer is a tube with a rubber stopper that has an opening for a graduated pipette tip.
When the system is fully assembled and submerged in a water bath, the water enters the pipette tip until a point in which the pressure inside and outside of the respirometer is equal.
When the temperature varies and the number of gas molecules is kept constant, the pressure or volume or both is directly related to the temperature.

A small magnetic stir bar, placed in the bottom of the respirometer, is then spun at a speed fast enough to mix the water, but not overly exercise or stress the fish (i.e., no whirpools!).
Replace the lid and center the respirometer on the stirring plate so the stir bar spins freely (if the chamber floats you may have to place a small weight on the lid to hold it down).
Insert the probe into the large hole in the respirometer and allow it to equilibrate to the water bath temperature as the fish is acclimating to its new surroundings.
