What is Inorganic Carbon Uptake in Asparagus Cells about?

This study investigated the uptake of inorganic carbon (CO2 or HCO3-) by isolated Asparagus mesophyll cells during photosynthesis. The researchers used an isotopic disequilibrium technique where they added radioactive CO2 or HCO3- to cells already undergoing steady-state photosynthesis. By monitoring the incorporation of radioactivity over time, they could determine whether CO2 or HCO3- was being taken up based on changes in specific activity. Their results showed that CO2 is the primary source of inorganic
