oxygenation
Infusing with breath
Oxygenation is the process of adding or supplying oxygen.
In medicine, it refers to how well oxygen moves from the lungs into the blood: The patient's oxygenation levels dropped dangerously low.
Water oxygenation matters for fish and aquatic life.
The verb is oxygenate: Plants oxygenate the air.
