Description
Abbreviation: PM+S+Rot_OXPHOS
Reference: A: simultaneous determination of O2 flux and the redox state of the Q-pool
- SUIT-category: NS
- SUIT protocol pattern: orthogonal 1PM;2D;3S;4Rot;5U;-
This is a protocol to investigate simultanouesly oxygen flux and the redox state of the Q-pool in the N- and NS-pathway control state on isolated mitochondria and permeabilized cells.

Strengths and limitations
- NS-OXPHOS capacity provides a physiologically relevant estimate of maximum mitochondrial respiratory capacity.
- A succinate concentration of >10 mM may be required for saturating SE capacity.
- + You obtain information in a single protocol about the NS-, S and N- pathway control state.
- - CIV activity cannot be determined and Cytochrome c test cannot be performed together with the fluorescence dyes.
- - Careful washing is required after the experiment to avoid carry-over of the inhibitors and uncoupler.
