==== Breathing liquid ====


==== PFCs ====

perfluorochemicals, or perfluorocarbon compounds

commercially available as liquivent > http://www.allp.com/LiquiVent/lv.htm for medical use.


==== saturation diving ====

"The technique is based on the fact that after about 24 hours at any working depth, a diver’s body becomes saturated with dissolved gas. Once the body is saturated, decompression -the period required to bring the diver gradually back to surface pressure without inflicting the bends- is the same regardless of how much time has been spent underwater. "
