From: The mitochondrial respiration signature of the bovine blastocyst reflects both environmental conditions of development as well as embryo quality

Figure 4

Ratio of mitochondrial respiration utilized for ATP generation (ATP-linked respiration) (Mean ± SD, (A) as well as average ATP-linked respiration of one embryo (B) illustrates significant (p < 0.05) differences between embryos of contrasting groups. Likewise, proportion of ATP-linked respiration, termed efficiency of ATP generation (Mean ± SD) differed significantly among groups (C). Ratio of mitochondrial respiration lost by proton leakage (Mean ± SD, D) as well as average mitochondrial respiration lost by proton leakage of one embryo (E) and proportion of mitochondrial respiration lost by proton leakage (Mean ± SD) relative to mitochondrial respiration, termed relative proton leak, (F) did not differ among groups.
