  • ISMM2014: X. World Congress on High Altitude Medicine and Physiology & Mountain Emergency Medicine, with a session on mitochondrial function at high altitude. May 2014, Bolzano, Italy.
  • MiP2014 - Joint IUBMB/MiP Symposium on Mitochondrial Physiology: This MiPconference will cover genotype/phenotype and structure/function relationships; focus on optimization of experimental protocols, quality control and normalization of mt-function; compare mt-preparations, experimental platforms and tissue/species specific models; extend networking of national/international organizations. September 2014, Obergurgl, Austria.
  • MitoGlobal Events 2014: Check out this year’s emerging list of world-wide mitochondrial events. Let us know about additional mt-events to be listed. In the spirit of positive feedback, please refer on your website to the Mitochondrial Global Network.
  • MitoPedia: Malate as substrate in respirometry – inhibition at higher concentrations. The type and concentration of respiratory substrates is important for the design of substrate-uncoupler-inhibitor titration (SUIT) protocols. 0.5 mM malate saturates CI linked respiration in combination with pyruvate and/or glutamate, whereas 2 mM malate inhibits CII linked (succinate+rotenone) and CI+II linked respiration, as shown in mouse heart (collaboration with the group of Sameh Ali), mouse brain homogenate, beef heart mitochondria, human permeabilized skeletal muscle fibres, dog permeabilized skeletal muscle fibers (IOC84), brine shrimp embryo (Artemia franciscana) mitochondria (collaboration with Steve Hand), fish liver and heart homogenates (post IOC80 training course).

Bioblast alert - feedback

  • As a scientist re-learning mitochondriology, the 'Blue Book' was extremely helpful, as is your Bioblast Glossary. You and Oroboros are doing a significant service to the scientific community! - Peter J. Oates, Ph.D., Sr. Director, Research, Stealth Peptides Inc., Newton, MA 02466, USA. [email protected] - www.linkedin.com/oatespj
  • Eine tolle und sehr nützliche Website! (This is a great and useful webpage!) - Gottfried Schatz, Basel, CH (2012-10-28)
  • I have been absolutely astonished by the quantity and quality of online information made available by Oroboros through Bioblast and the associated resources. Josh Fessel Nashville, TN, US (2012-11-26)
