title: A method for the assessment of the quality of mitochondrial preparations.
abstract: A new experimental approach was applied to the quantitative assessment of the physiological properties of mitochondria. An analytical function (QUAL) was derived from a linear combination of parameters selected by factor correspondence analysis (FCA). The quality of a mitochondrial preparation can be expressed by two numerical values computed from the function QUAL: a mean value and its variance. These statistical parameters can be used for exploring data from planned experiments.
