Plate-Based Measurement of Respiration by Isolated Mitochondria and by Intact Cells
摘要
Measuring respiration rate can be a powerful way to assess energetic function in isolated mitochondria and intact cells. Current plate-based methods have several advantages over older suspension-based systems, including greater throughput and the requirement of only microgram quantities of material. In this chapter, we provide an update to our previously published methods for plate-based measurement of oxygen consumption in isolated adherent mitochondria in a 96-well format plate. We also describe methods for performing the same measurements on intact cells in a 96-well format.
