Fig. 1. Cadmium-induced ROS production in oyster mitochondria. (A) Total rate of
ROS production in control mitochondria and those exposed to 50 µmol
l-1 Cd at 20°C. (B) Percentage oxygen converted to ROS in
oyster mitochondria, which was calculated by dividing the rate of ROS
production by the rate of mitochondrial oxygen consumption measured with the
same substrates at 20°C. ROS production and
O2 of complete and partial
ETC was measured with complex-specific substrates as described in `Materials
and methods'. *Values significantly different from the respective
controls (P<0.05). Values are means ± s.e.m.,
N=5-7.
