Do you see fluctuations of O₂ slope negative following a pattern similar to the Peltier power, but without block temperature variation?

Placing the O2k under direct airflow of an air conditioning equipment may lead to disturbances in the O₂ slope negative.

Oroboros of the month

In the artwork "First Fruits of the Earth Offered to Saturn" at the Palazzo Vecchio, Saturn (Cronus in Greek mythology) is holding the Ouroboros in the hand, symbolizing the eternal cycle of renewal and the interconnectedness of beginning and end.

Adressing the importance for biotechnological exploitations

Methodology enabling expansion of current knowledge in the field of chloroplast and algal bioenergetics:

Huete-Ortega M, Di Marcello M, Iglesias-Gonzalez J, Gnaiger E (2020) High-resolution respirometry for chloroplast and mitochondrial bioenergetics in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii ― towards biotechnology exploitations. MitoFit Preprint Arch doi:10.26124/mitofit:ea20.algaeurope.0001. - »Bioblast link«

Submit your preprint to MitoFit Preprint Arch and increase awareness of your research::

Journal articles that were uploaded as preprints before being published gather more citations in the long run than papers without a preprint version. The effect is immediate and long-lasting.

» How to submit your preprint «

To publish scientific and technical advances in bioenergetics and mitochondrial physiology in living communications, submit your paper to the Open Access journal Bioenergetics Communications.

Same experimental conditions, but different O₂ fluxes in the left and right chambers?

Check for instrumental and operational factors that could be causing O₂ flux differences between the O2k-chambers.
