Does cell density affect photosynthesis measurements? 🌿 Yes, too dense and an overproduction of O₂ can lead to altered physiology and noisy O₂ flux readings. Read the manual for more information 📘 buff.ly/4SUJSBA #PhotoBiology #chloroplasts #algae

Do you know what stoichiometry coefficient to use for your experiment? Use +𝟭 for O₂ produced (photosynthesis 🌿) and -𝟭 for O₂ consumed (respiration 💨) when expressing these processes as oxygen flux. Learn more 👉 buff.ly/YKGYUwl #PhotoBiology #DatLab #chloroplasts

Substrates, ADP or Uncoupler? ✅ Increase in respiration? ❌ It could be a sign you have residual inhibitor in your Oroboros chamber. Learn how to clean it using biological sample: buff.ly/At4MkZd #mitochondria #HighResolutionRespirometry #OpenSupport

Thank you @ICQ10A! Our team is enjoying their time in Copenhagen at #11thConferenceICQ10A

IINTERNATIONAL COENZYME Q10 ASSOCIATION@ICQ10A · Jun 16

#11thConferenceICQ10A Luiza Cardoso & Mateus Grings demonstrated Q redox pool measurements using the Oroboros O2k—an integrated high‐resolution respirometry and fluorometry system for real‐time monitoring of mitochondrial respiration and quinone redox state.
