LIPID CHANGES IN MITOCHONDRIA OF ARUM ITALICUM SPADIX DURING THE INFLORESCENCE DEVELOPMENT... 

Arum italicum L spadices were collected in woods near Paris and mitochondria were isolated at various developmental stages and purified on sucrose gradient, according to (1). Cytochrome oxidase and malate dehydrogenase activities were measured by spectrophotometry in a 300 mOsm medium. Tlie ratio of the activities with or without Triton X-100 (0,2%) give an estimation of outer membrane permeability to cytochrome c or of inner membrane permeability to NADH. and thus of mitochondrial integrity. Lipids were extracted and analysed according to (3) and separated by TLC...
