A quantum state of mitochondria in the living cell

The high energy-efficiency of life is hard to understand only with classical physics. Many efforts have been made to study its mechanism based on quantum mechanics; the progress is nevertheless slow due to lack of experimental evidence with living cells. Here, combining experiments on cells, tissues and mitochondria with a theoretical model, we demonstrate a quantum state of mitochondria, which…
