Clark type oxygen electrode system
The Clark-type oxygen electrode system is a laboratory instrument used to measure the concentration of dissolved oxygen in a sample. It functions by utilizing an electrochemical cell that generates a current proportional to the amount of oxygen present in the sample. The system provides a quantitative measurement of oxygen levels, enabling researchers to monitor and analyze oxygen-dependent processes.

Measurement of Cellular Oxygen Consumption
Mitochondrial Respiration Profiling
respiration rates (state 3, ADP-stimulated; state 4, ADP-deleted;
and respiratory control ratio) were observed by a Clark-type oxygen
electrode system connected to a computer-operated oxygraph control
unit (Hansatech Instruments, Norfolk, U.K.).41 (link) About 1.0 mL of total reaction volume was used at 28 °C for
all of the experiment group conditions. About 30–60 μg
of freshly isolated mitochondria was added to the respiration buffer
(120 mM KCl, 5 mM potassium phosphate, 3 mM HEPES, 1 mM ethylene glycol-O,-O′-bis-(2-aminoethyl) tetraacetic
acid (EGTA), 1 mM MgCl2, and 0.2% BSA, pH 7.2) and allowed
to equilibrate for a minute. FAD-linked substrate (10 mM succinate)
was then added to the chamber and allowed to equilibrate for 1 min,
followed by the addition of ADP (100 μM final concentration).
The measurements involve addition of ADP for state 3 and removal of
ADP for state 4. The respiratory control ratio (RCR) was calculated
by the ratio of state 3 to state 4 respirations.42 (link)
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
