Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:SP000421
Sampleprep Summary:Tissue was homogenized using a glass/Teflon Potter-Elvehjem tissue grinder (240 rpm) and fractionated by centrifugation at 800 g (10 min), and the supernatant collected and spun at 12000 g (9 min). The pellet was resuspended in 20 ml BM and incubated on ice for 5 min (myofibrillar repolymerization). Samples were spun at 800 g (8 min) to pellet actin-myosin polymers. The supernatant was then spun at 12000 g (9 min). The final pellet was resuspended in 220 µl of BM.
Sampleprep Protocol Filename:Long-Chain_Fatty_Acid_Metabolite_Profiles_in_Skeletal_Muscle_Mitochondria.PDF
Sampleprep Protocol Comments:This isolation procedure yields mitochondria with high respiratory control ratios (state 3/state 4; ∼8–10 when supplied with 10 mM pyruvate/5 mM malate), and which are capable of activating palmitate [29], a process dependent on the integrity of enzymes on the mitochondrial outer membrane. Protein concentration was determined by a modified Lowry method with BSA as standard.
Processing Method:Homogenized
