Effect of Phenylhydrazine and Hydrolysed Glucose Cycloacetoacetate on Adenosinetriphosphatase Activity in Liver Mitochondria

Abstract

ALTHOUGH freshly prepared liver mitochondria are unable to hydrolyse ATP at a perceptible rate1, damaging liver mitochondria is known to bring about ATP hydrolysis2. Deleterious effects of phenylhydrazine on liver have also been reported3,4.
