Methods are described for the assessment of mitochondrial function in small (less than 50
mg) samples of human skeletal muscle using spectrophotometric assays to follow the …

A method is presented which allows the investigation of almost the complete mitochondrial
content of small human skeletal muscle biopsy specimens. Thorough mechanical disruption …

Mitochondria prepared in small scale from skeletal muscle were studied with respiration
measurements and low temperature spectroscopy. The method of preparation was …

Mitochondria were isolated from small muscle biopsy specimens, and the cytochrome
content was calculated from the reduced minus oxidized difference spectrum recorded at …

A set of methods suitable for assessment of respiratory chain function in mitochondria
isolated from 25mg of muscle is described. This set of methods includes determination of the …

This chapter contains sections titled: Introduction Diagnosis of Muscle Diseases with
Mitochondrial Malfunction Sources and Handling of Skeletal Muscle Cytochemical …

Disturbances in substrate oxidations in muscle mitochondria from patients with a suspicion
of a mitochondrial myopathy may arise from a deficiency of one or more of the complexes of …

High resolution respirometry in combination with the skinned fiber technique offers the
possibility to study mitochondrial function routinely in small amounts of human muscle …

Mitochondrial preparations derived from denervated rat skeletal muscle and paired control
muscle are characterized with respect to their oxidative and phosphorylative capacities. Our …

Relatively few studies of mitochondria isolated from normal and diseased mammalian
skeletal muscle have been reported (Azzone and Carafoli, 1960; Azzone & a& 1961; …
