Description
Respiratory states of mitochondrial preparations and intact cells are defined in many ways and with a diversity of terms. Clarification of the underlying concepts is necessary in each case, as long as ambiguous definitions are not removed and general terms are not used with definitions that are commonly accepted.

Generalized coupling control states
Coupling states of intact cells
Substrate control states
- Intact cells: endogenous, exogenous substrate control
- Mitochondrial preparations: specific substrate-inhibitor combinations for selectively stimulating electron entry though Complex I, CII, or other branches converging at the Q-junction, particularly with fatty acids and alpha-glycerophosphate (CI respiration, CII respiration, etc.), or substrate combinations applied for reconstitution of TCA cycle function (CI+II respiration, etc.).
Kinetic control states
- Kinetic substrate or adenylate control: Kinetic studies with variation of a specific substrate (reduced substrate supplying electrons to the ETS; ADP, Pi; O2; cytochrome c) are analyzed by kinetic functions (e.g. hyperbolic), yielding apparent kinetic constants, such as the Km', c50, or p50.
- Kinetic inhibitor control: Kinetic studies with variation of a specific inhibitor yield apparent kinetic constants, such as the KI'.
