Abstract:
Amberlite XAD-7, a nonionic polyacrylate adsorbent, was found to be a very effective protectant for isolating mitochondria from tissues rich in oils and phenolics. Physiologically active, well-coupled mitochondria were successfully prepared from young green leaf tissues of citrus, apple, pear and tobacco.
