The typical difference in pH between the intermembrane space and the pH of the mitochondrial matrix is 0.750 units lower, and the Ay =yout- Vin = 0.168 V; and T-310 K. a) The Eo' for MTT can be assumed to be 0.4 V. Why is MTT reduced to formazan in living cells, but not considered to do so in dead cells? b) What can you state based on the information that botanical extracts can reduce MTT?
