Oxygen consumption of tissue of mouse and frog liver was measured with Warburg's method (1923) under various temperatures (10° to 44° for mouse, 25° to 38° for frog).
The oxygen consumption of mouse liver increased 10° to 41° acceleratedly, and decreased rapidly at higher temperature.
The temperature coefficients (Q10, μ and b) were not constant for the whole temperature range, but for the 25° to 38°, the variation of Q10 and μ were relatively small, and at lower temperature range they were larger and at higher temperature smaller. b-value of Bêlehrádek was found to be inconstant at any temperature range.
The oxygen consumption of frog liver was smaller than that of mouse liver, but showed the same tendency of increase between 25° to 38°, with smaller temperature coefficient.
