I'm wondering what specifically biological/chemical separates a 
living cell from one that has just "died" through lack of oxygen. 
 Physical and chemical damage is easily understood but I was 
wondering what prevents a cell from being reactivated with O2 
infusion assuming no parasitic/pathogenic assult.
