Abstrakt: This section aims to describe the measurement of NADH and FAD 2 + levels in intact cells using fluorescence microscopy. Both NADH and FADH 2 are major electron donors for the electron transport chain through shifting of their redox status. Furthermore, within their redox couples, only NADH and FAD 2+ are fluorescent. Therefore, calibration of the NADH and FAD 2+ fluorescence signal is a crucial factor in accurately assessing mitochondrial function and redox status.
