Description
The LEAK control ratio, L/E, is the flux ratio of LEAK respiration over ETS capacity, as determined by measurement of oxygen consumption in sequentially induced states L and E of respiration. The L/E ratio is an index of uncoupling or dyscoupling at constant ETS capacity. L/E increases with uncoupling from a theoretical minimum of 0.0 for a fully coupled system, to 1.0 for a fully uncoupled (non-coupled) system.
Abbreviation: L/E
