Review
Convenience and simplicity
'The convenience and simplicity of the polarographic 'oxygen electrode' technicque for measuring rapid changes in the rate of oxygen utilization by cellular and subcellular systems is now leading to its more general application in many laboratories. The types and design of oxygen electrodes vary, depending on the invetigator's ingenuity and specific requirements of the system under investigation.'

More precise information
"However, one approach that is underutilized in whole-cell bioenergetics, and that is accessible as long as cells can be obtained in suspension, is the oxygen electrode, which can obtain more precise information on the bioenergetic status of the in situ mitochondria than more โhigh-techโ approaches such as fluorescent monitoring of ฮฯm.โ
