| |description='''CIV''' is measured in intact mitochondria after inhibiton of CIII by antimycin A, and addition of [[ascorbate]] and the artificial substrate TMPD. Ascorbate has to be titrated first. It reduces [[TMPD]], which further reduces cytochrome ''c'', which is the substrate for cytochrome ''c'' oxidase (CIV). Since CIV is a proton pump of the electron transfer system, the single step of CIV-linked respiration can be measured in different coupling states: CIV(L), CIV(P), and CIV(E). Measurement of CIV activity requires uncoupler titrations to eliminate any potential control by the phosphorylation system, and a cytochrome ''c'' test to avoid any limitation by cytochrome ''c'' release.
