[3]. The final concentrations of the various agents were, where added: 3'3 x lo"^* m ATP, 10"^^ M menadione, and 3 3 X io~* M PMS. The time for the experiment was 20 min. in the absence and 6 min. in the presence of PMS.

Strong inhibition only on the stimulation due to addition of menadione. This is seen especially clearly in the experiment with the pre-aged sample. A comparison between the values obtained with the fresh and the pre-aged material further show^s that the stability of the three systems increases in the order: system with no added electron carrier, system with added menadione, and system with added PMS. This sequence has been shown.
