Abstract

The thermogenic curves of the metabolism of mitochondria isolated from the liver of chicken Star-Cross 288 and the effect of La3+ on it were studied by using an LKB-2277 BioActivity Monitor, ampoule method, at 37°C. After isolation from the chicken liver tissue, mitochondria still have metabolic activity and can live for a long time by using the stored nutrients. From the thermogenic curves, we obtained the thermokinetic equations under different condition. The kinetic study shows that La3+ has changed the metabolism completely.
