The fragments were transferred to containers filled with homogenization medium (100 mM Tris, ! ".4, #10mM manitol, "0 mM saccharose and10 mM $%T& in a 'olume of a ro(imately 10 ml) and triturated three times for three seconds at one minute inter'als in a Turra( ty e homogenizer at 100 to 1*0 r m. &fter cell lysis, the sus ension was rocessed in a refrigerated centrifuge at 4C (!+T&C!+ , !+M&C C- #1 ) for three cycles, the first at "*0g for fi'e minutes and the other two at 11.#00g for ten minutes. The reci itate resulting from the last centrifugation contained the mitochondrial fraction. Study of mitochondrial function The .asic arameters of mitochondrial res iration, i.e. state +++, state +/ and res iratory control ratio (-C- 0 state +++1state +/), were determined.
