Respiratory activity and ROS production by rat brain mitochondria oxidizing palmitoyl carnitine in various substrate mixtures. Incubation conditions as in Figure 7 and substrate mixtures as described in Figure 11. The data are average of three different isolations (M ± standard error). ROS production was measured with the Amplex red method as described in [10]. The minimal rate of ROS production was observed with glutamate + malate, which was taken as 100%.
