Abstract:
The isolation medium plays an important part in the assessment of mitochondrial damage following coronary artery ligation. Albumin added to either isolation or incubation medium can protect. A depression of oxygen uptake is found only after prolonged ischemia or in a simple incubation medium. Hence mitochondrial oxygen wastage probably occurs in the infarction process.
