Measurement of the oxidation state of mitochondrial cytochrome c from the neocortex of the mammalian brain

Diffuse optical remission spectra from the mammalian neocortex at visible wavelengths contain spectral features originating from the mitochondria. A new algorithm is presented, based on analytically relating the first differential of the attenuation spectrum to the first differential of the chromoph...
