Metabolic control analysis + (Metabolic control analysis is a science fo … Metabolic control analysis is a science focused on the understanding of metabolic regulation and control. In metabolism, the reductionist approach has allowed us to know which enzymes, metabolites and genes are involved in a metabolic pathway but this is not enough to understand how it is controlled, resulting in poor results from attempts to increase the rates of selected metabolic pathways. The control of the metabolism is the capacity to alter the metabolic state in response to an external signal. With this definition in mind, we will assess the metabolic control in terms of the strength of any of the responses to the external factor without making the assumption about the function or purpose of that response[1].====Bibliography:====::1.

The effect of '''scattering''' is an apparent increase in [[absorbance]] due to an increase in pathlength and the loss of light scattered in directions other than that of the detector. Two types of scattering are encountered. For incident light of wavelength ''λ'', Rayleigh scattering is due to particles of diameter < ''λ'' (molecules, sub-cellular particles).

Volume of the solute + (Most of the chemicals for SUIT protocol ti … Most of the chemicals for SUIT protocol titrations are prepared by weighing the substance on the balance, transferring to a volumetric glass flask and adding solvent until the intended volume is reached. However, for practical reasons some of the chemical compounds are prepared by just adding the solvent instead of adjusting it's volume. For example, this approach is useful if the substance is very toxic. Then an arbitratry amount is taken, its mass determined on the balance without trying to reach a specific value and the necessary amount of solvent is added. Adding the solvent instead of adjusting its volume is also useful if small amounts are needed (e.g. 1 mL) or if the compound has to be prepared directly before using it like Pyruvate.

Nigericin + (Nigericin is a H+/K … Nigericin is a H+/K+ antiporter, which allows the electroneutral transport of these two ions in opposite directions across the mitochondrial inner membrane following the K+ concentration gradient. In the presence of K+, nigericin decreases pH in the mitchondrial matrix, thus, almost fully collapses the transmembrane ΔpH, which leads to the compensatory increase of the electric [[Mitochondrial membrane potential|mt-membrane potential]]. Therefore, it is ideal to use to dissect the two components of the [[Protonmotive force|protonmotive force]], ΔpH and [[Mitochondrial membrane potential|mt-membrane potential]]. It is recommended to use the lowest possible concentration of nigericin, which creates a maximal mitochondrial hyperpolarization. In the study of [[Komlodi 2018 J Bioenerg Biomembr]], 20 nM was applied on brain mitochondria isolated from guinea-pigs using 5 mM [[Succinate|succinate]] in the [[LEAK respiration|LEAK state]] which caused maximum hyperpolarisation, but did not fully dissipate the transmembrane ΔpH. Other groups (Selivanov et al 2008; Lambert et al 2004), however, used 100 nM nigericin, which in their hands fully collapsed transmembrane ΔpH using succinate as a respiratory substrate on isolated rat brain and skeletal muscle in the [[LEAK respiration|LEAK state]].AK respiration|LEAK state]].)

Depolarisation of the mt-membrane potential (''e.g.'' after ADP addition to stimulate OXPHOS) leads to inhibition of RET and therefore, decrease of RET-initiated ROS production. RET can be also measured when mitochondria are respiring using [[Glycerophosphate |Gp]] without rotenone in the [[LEAK respiration|LEAK]] state. Addition of IQ-side inhibitors (ubiquinone-binding side of CI) of [[Complex I |CI]] usually block RET.

In typical [[SUIT protocol]]s with [[Electron-transfer-pathway state |type N and S substrates]], flux in the [[NS-pathway control state]] NS is inhibited by [[rotenone]] to measure flux in the [[S-pathway control state]], S(Rot) or S.

Experimentally rotenone Rot is added to the NS-state.

[[Coenzyme Q]] (CoQ or Q, [[ubiquinone]]) is a mobile redox component located centrally in the mitochondrial [[ETS]], while plastoquinones are essential mobile components in the photosynthetic system with a similar function. The Q-redox state depends on the balance between reducing capacities of convergent electron entries from fuel substrates into the Q-junction and oxidative capacities downstream of Q to the electron acceptor oxygen. Therefore, deficiencies in the mitochondrial [[ETS]], originating from e.g. the malfunction of respiratory Complexes, can be detected by measuring the changes of the Q-redox state with respect to the respiratory activity.A three-electrode system was implemented into the NextGen-O2k to monitor the Q-redox state continuously and simultaneously with respiratory oxygen consumption.
