LIPOAMIDE DEHYDROGENASE, CITRATE SYNTHASE, AND BETA-HYDROXYACYL-COENZYME A-DEHYDROGENASE OF SKELETAL MUSCLE. 10. INFLUENCE OF FROZEN STORAGE OF BOVINE AND PORCINE MUSCLE ON ENZYME ACTIVITY AND SUBCELLULAR DISTRIBUTION.

[In German. / En allemand.]

Type of article: Article

Summary

THE INFLUENCE OF STORAGE OF BOVINE AND PORCINE MUSCLE AT -20 DEG C FOR 12 MONTHS AND OF THAWING ON THE TOTAL EXTRACTABLE ACTIVITY AND SUBCELLULAR DISTRIBUTION OF THE MITOCHONDRIAL ENZYMES WAS STUDIED. IT WAS SHOWN THAT, ADDITIONALLY TO THE EFFECT OF FREEZING AND THAWING ITSELF, FROZEN STORAGE RESULTS IN FURTHER DAMAGE TO THE INNER MEMBRANE OF MUSCLE MITOCHONDRIA, WHICH MAY BE RECOGNIZED FROM THE INCREASED RELEASE OF MEMBRANE-BOUND ENZYMES. IN THIS RESPECT PORCINE MUSCLE MITOCHONDRIA SEEM TO BE MORE SENSITIVE THAN BOVINE MUSCLE MITOCHONDRIA.
