Abstract

This section aims to describe the measurement of NADH and FAD2+ levels in intact cells using fluorescence microscopy. Both NADH and FADH2 are major electron donors for the electron transport chain through shifting of their redox status. Furthermore, within their redox couples, only NADH and FAD2+ are fluorescent. Therefore, calibration of the NADH and FAD2+ fluorescence signal is a crucial factor in accurately assessing mitochondrial function and redox status.
