Improved method for isolation of coupled mitochondria of Araucaria angustifolia (Bert.) O. Kuntze

A method for the isolation of coupled mitochondria from the callus of Araucaria angustifolia is described for the first time. Mitochondria were isolated from embryogenic callus of A. angustifolia. They were metabolically active, able to sustain oxidative phosphorylation as shown by respiratory contr...
