146. A method of delivering a therapeutic gas to a tissue in a subject comprising administering to the tissue a composition comprising a perfluorocarbon and a therapeutic gas storage form, wherein when the therapeutic gas storage form is an oxygen storage form, it is separated from the perfluorocarbon by a gas-permeable and liquid-impermeable material, so as to thereby deliver the therapeutic gas to the tissue.
- 147. A method of delivering a therapeutic gas to a tissue in a subject comprising topically administering to the tissue a solid or semi-solid composition comprising a perfluorocarbon and a therapeutic gas storage form, wherein when the therapeutic gas storage form is an oxygen storage form, it is separated from the perfluorocarbon by a gas-permeable and liquid-impermeable material, so as to thereby deliver the therapeutic gas to the tissue.
