Chromium oxalate: a new spin label broadening agent for use with thylakoids.
Potassium tris(oxalato)chromate(III) trihydrate (chromium ixalate) has been shown to be a more useful broadening agent than potassium ferricyanide for the spin label 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl-4-amine (Tempamine) in thylakoid suspensions. Our data show that chromium oxalate is less permeable than ferricyanide, does not inhibit thylakoid electron transport or photophosphorylation, and is not photoreduced by thylakoids.
