    Cellular and mitochondrial respiration and bioenergetics

    Cellular and mitochondrial respiration (OCR) and acidification (ECAR) are assessed with the Agilent Seahorse XF Pro 96. In a 96-well plate format, real-time measurements of cellular respiration, oxidative phosphorylation, mitochondrial leak, and mitochondrial transport are assessed as functional kinetic measurements of cellular bioenergetics. Changes in acidification are also observed simultaneously. An integrated Agilent BioTek Cytation5 imager correlates cell number via Hoechst nuclear stain to respiration for more accurate normalization of respiration.
