FIGURE 6.

Maximum rates of superoxide/H₂O₂ production from different mitochondrial sites. Data were corrected for H₂O₂ consumption by matrix peroxidases using Equation 1. Data for the first three bars (sites I_F, I_Q, and III_Qo) are from footnote 4. In all cases measurements were made under conditions that we have found to maximize superoxide production rates from these sites. The final bar represents the CDNB-corrected rate of H₂O₂ production from site II_F (corrected data from Fig. 2). Data are means ± S.E. (n ≥ 3).
