Do you observe an unstable O2 slope negative following TIP2k titrations during an instrumental O2 background test?
Incorrect placement of TIP2k Filter Papers can lead to liquid accumulation and convective oxygen backdiffusion. Check for proper placement by confirming they are fully in contact with the stopper receptacle.

Which medium can be used for the instrumental background test?
When using dithionite, the instrumental background test should be performed in mitochondrial respiration medium MiR05, MiR05-Kit or MiR06; or alternatively, in a strong alkaline phosphate buffer (>100 mM; >pH 8), to avoid side reactions that might interfere with the test.

Why is it important to perform respirometry with permeabilized muscle fibers (pfi) under a high [O2] regime?
Long diffusion distances in the pfi result in an O2 diffusion limitation, which is overcome by increasing the O2 partial pressure inside the chamber. Proper instrumental background correction is a must and O2 dependence of ROS production should be considered.
