    Specifications 2.3 General principle of operation Optical sensing of oxygen originates from the work of Kautsky in 1939 where he demonstrated that oxygen can dynamically quench the fluorescence of an indicator (decrease the quantum yield). This principle has been reported in various fields of application such as monitoring aquatic biology in waste water, tests for blood gas analysis and cell culture monitoring.
