Air date: Jan 26, 1978

ISOLATION AND METABOLISM OF MITOCHONDRIA: In this programme the mitochondria - photoplasmic bodies carrying out most of the aerobic metabolism within the cell - in the cells of a rats liver, are isolated and used to demonstrate how the new oxygen uptake can be recorded by the chemical reactions of various organic compounds in the mitochondria.
