How do you know which digitonin concentration to use for permeabilization of the cell plasma membrane when performing experiments with the O2k?

SUIT-010 was designed to determine the optimum digitonin concentration for permeabilization of the cell plasma membrane without damaging the mitochondrial outer membrane.

Did you know that you can apply instrumental O₂ background test parameters (i.e., intercept and slope) from an existing file in DatLab?

In the DatLab file, you can copy the Instrumental O₂ background test parameters directly via the ‘Copy from file’ option in the ‘Slope configuration’ window. For more information, see: - »Copy from file«
