Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is both a source of oxidative damage and a signaling molecule. This protocol describes how to measure mitochondrial H2O2 using mitochondria-targeted HyPer7 (mtHyPer7), a genetically encoded ratiometric biosensor, in living yeast. It details how to optimize imaging conditions and perform quantitative cellular and subcellular analysis using freely available software.

Gastric patient-derived organoids find increasing use in research, yet formal protocols for generating human gastric organoids from single-cell digests with standardized seeding density are lacking. This protocol presents a detailed method for reliably creating gastric organoids from biopsy tissue obtained during upper endoscopy.
