<!--       4 ARCHIVE AGENDA        -->
 
<big>'''O2'''k:</big> The '''Oxy'''graph-2k measures oxygen ([[Oxygen |dioxygen, '''O<sub>2</sub>''']]) as a gas dissolved in aqueous solutions. With the Oxy'''graph'''-2k, a graph is displayed not only of oxygen concentration over time, but of '''respiration''' (oxygen consumption, oxygen flux) of the biological sample. The Oxygraph-2k is not used for measurement of oxygen concentration in a tissue, but for high-resolution analysis of respiratory activity of biological samples transferred into the experimental chamber.
 
[[Image:O2k-Protocols.jpg|right|230px|link=http://http://www.bioblast.at/index.php/Gnaiger_2012_MitoPathways|MitoPathways]]
[[File:Pesta 2012 Methods Mol Biol Fig7A.jpg|left|250px|link=http://www.bioblast.at/index.php/Pesta_2012_Methods_Mol_Biol|Pesta and Gnaiger 2012]]
Specific substrate-uncoupler-inhibitor titration (SUIT) protocols are applied in studies of cell respiration or mitochondrial activity. In such experiments, quantitative information is obtained on selected [[Gnaiger 2012 MitoPathways |biochemical pathways]], particularly of the process of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) in mitochondria and bacteria. Comprehensive OXPHOS analysis leads us beyond the highly informative process of oxygen consumption, when high-resolution respirometry is combined with O2k-MultiSensor Modules to measure simultaneously the production of reactive oxygen species or mitochondrial membrane potential, nitric oxide production, acid-base balance or calcium with O2k-Fluorometry or ion selective electrodes. In the O2k, these bioenergetic parameters are always evaluated in combination with the measurement of oxygen concentration and respiration.

* <big>O'''2k''':</big> The Oxygraph-2k is the '''2'''<sup>nd</sup> generation of our high-resolution respirometers. The first model was available since [http://www.oroboros.at/?Oroboros1992 1992]. Development of the new O'''2k''' started in '''2k''' (2000) and the first O'''2'''k was delivered in [http://www.oroboros.at/?Oroboros2002 '''2'''00'''2'''].
 
 
* <big>O2'''k''':</big> The Oxygraph-2k has two experimental chambers ('''k''': Kammern, German for chambers). [http://www.oroboros.at/?Oxygraph-2k Why 2 ml?]
 
 
* <big>'''Power-O2k''':</big> Several O2k units are operated simultaneously ('''P'''1, '''P'''2, ..) to combine high-resolution respirometry with [http://www.oroboros.at/?Power-O2k high-ouput].
