Collection: Mitochondrial Inhibitors
Mitochondrial Inhibitors — contains small compounds that act on the electron transport chain and the oxidative phosphorylation coupling mechanism inside mitochondria. This class is used as a chemical tool to deliberately disrupt mitochondrial function in cellular bioenergetics research.
Compounds such as rotenone inhibit complex I of the respiratory chain, while uncouplers such as CCCP and its derivatives disrupt the membrane proton gradient without affecting the rate of electron transport. Metformin is studied as a modulator of mitochondrial metabolism in metabolic research. Cell biology and bioenergetics researchers use this class as a tool to map cellular respiration pathways in cell cultures or isolated organelles.
Example products in this collection: TCI R0090 83-79-4 Rotenone, TCI C2876 555-60-2 CCCP, TCI M2009 1115-70-4 Metformin Hydrochloride, TCI C3463 370-86-5 Carbonyl Cyanide 4-(Trifluoromethoxy)phenylhydrazone.
Consider solubility in organic solvents such as DMSO for preparing stock solutions, as well as specific targets in the respiratory chain (complex I, uncouplers, or metabolic modulators) according to experimental design. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on each item's page.
