@JohannesPilic Good question - the digitonin permeabilizes (specifically?) the plasma membrane, leading to a calcium influx in the cytoplasm and mitochondria (which we measure).
Use of digitonin in absence of Ca2+ seems to preserve mito morphology:

Imagine being named by literature laureate Rabindranath Tagore, that is what happened to Amartya Sen. Tagore suggested Sen’s unusual first name to his mother. 'Amartya' means immortal (Bengali অমর্ত্য ômorto, lit. "immortal"). Read Sen's article on Tagore: https://t.co/ltBsG1lLlA

A diferencia de Australia dónde vetaron a políticos por tratar de intervenir en los apoyos a la investigación científica, incluida las humanidades; allá los comités de científicos deciden. En México la nueva ley pretende centralizar los apoyos en una sola persona: política.

Let's show folks what jobs are land-able with a PhD. PhDs outside of academia: what's your job title?
