title: Respiration measurements in small scale.
abstract: The design and operation of a small (< 40 microliters) reaction vessel with membrane-covered oxygen electrode is described. The equipment's productivity and experimental versatility is similar to that of equipment using 100 times more biological material. Control experiments showed that respiration experiments are made with virtually no systematic errors and random errors of less than 2%.
