  • Funding: € 140,000 plus a bonus of € 5,000 for the implementation of gender sensitive actions.


NextGen-O2k publication

The fourth dimension of respiratory control

  1. On the "line": one dimension is insufficient.
  2. Coupling and pathway control are two necessarily connected dimensions defining the “area” of respiratory control.
  3. Adding kinetics (including substrate kinetics of O2, CHO, adenylates, Pi, and flux-force kinetics) is the third dimension bringing “volume” into the picture of classical mitochondrial respiratory control.
  4. The NextGen-O2k on top of O2k-MultiSensor modules and the O2k-FluoRespirometer represent the fourth dimension of respiratory control, by adding analysis of functional variables (such as ROS production, mt-membrane potential, Ca2+, proton flux, cytochrome and NADH redox states, ATP production) to the measurement of O2 and O2-flux in the same chamber.


Development of the NextGen-O2k prototype: a look inside

Different stages of prototype development: The NextGen-O2k is becoming more and more packed with two spectrofluorometers, two spectrophotometers, light guides, Peltier temperatue control with new heat pipes, microelectronics.
