Because H₂O₂ production by the sample is typically low, background fluorescence slopes in Amplex Red/UltraRed assays can markedly distort flux measurements. Adding the iron chelator DTPA to the assay medium suppresses iron-mediated side reactions and reduces unintended UltroxRed formation, lowering the background fluorescence slope.

Season’s greetings from all of us at Oroboros Instruments.
Thank you to our customers, partners, and the global research community for your trust and collaboration throughout the year.
We wish you a restful holiday season and a strong start into the new year.

Oroboros tip: Measure the instrumental background at the same temperature you use for your experiments. Temperature changes both POS-related O₂ consumption and back diffusion, which directly shifts the background O₂ flux and can bias corrections if the background was recorded under different conditions.

During photosynthesis measurements in microalgae, sufficient supplementation with NaHCO₃ is essential to ensure that O2 flux rates are not constrained by inorganic carbon availability. Adding bicarbonate directly to the Oroboros chamber helps to maintain inorganic carbon availability throughout the experiment.

Collection of the buffy coat is a critical step in the PBMC isolation workflow, as this layer contains the target mononuclear cells. Careful aspiration, avoiding contamination with erythrocytes, granulocytes or debris, helps maintain sample purity and improves the quality and reproducibility of downstream respirometric measurements with the O2k / NextGen-O2k.

How do chemo- and radiotherapy affect mitochondrial function in circulating immune cells?

In a recent study using high-resolution respirometry with the Oroboros O2k, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from breast cancer patients showed a transient increase in mitochondrial O₂ flux in both intact and permeabilized cells after chemo- and radiotherapy.

Working with limited or low-respiration samples such as PBMCs?

The Oroboros small-volume module (sV-Module) enables high-resolution respirometry with minimal amounts of biological material, helping you obtain reliable data even when sample quantity is restricted.

Muceniece et al explored the potential of nettle leaf extract on hepatoprotection. High-resolution respirometry in HepG2 cells showed that nettle leaf water extract significantly increased FN OXPHOS-linked O₂ consumption compared to control.

🟦 Are you using sticky tissues on your experiments? Make sure to clean your stirrers as part of your regular cleaning workflow.

Following the DatLab protocols “Cleaning after use_stirrers” or “Cleaning_AfterUse_inhibitors”, simply stop the stirrer after the pre-wash, siphon the water from the chamber, remove the stirrer, wipe it thoroughly with a paper towel, rinse with clean water, and return it to the same chamber.
Consistent cleaning helps ensure high-quality, reproducible results in your experiments.

We are delighted to welcome Ana as our new Chloro Climber. As part of our Bioenergetics Adventurers, she will contribute to advancing our R&D activities and deepening our understanding of cellular bioenergetics and photobiology for our scientific community and customers worldwide.

In the F-pathway control state, fatty acid oxidation depends not only on electron transfer through the F-junction where electrons derived from fatty acids are transferred to electron-transferring flavoprotein dehydrogenase Complex (CETFDH) and subsequently pass through the Q-junction to Complex III (CIII) - but also on the concurrent generation of NADH.

Consequently, F-pathway respiration is influenced by both F-junction electron transfer and N-junction throughput, highlighting the importance of selecting a protocol that accounts for both contributions.

How do oxygen levels and the choice of respiration medium influence our mitochondrial readouts?

Doerrier et al. (2024, Free Radic Biol Med) show that high O₂ regimes (~250–400 µM) can markedly increase measured O₂ flux, and that these effects depend strongly on the respiration medium.
