|description=[[File:E.jpg |link=ET capacity]] Noncoupled state of [[ET capacity]].  '''State 3u''' (u for uncoupled) has been used frequently in bioenergetics, without sufficient emphasis [[Villani 1998 J Biol Chem|(e.g. Villani et al 1998)]] on the fundamental difference between [[OXPHOS capacity]] (''P'', coupled with an uncoupled contribution; State 3) and noncoupled [[ET capacity]] (''E''; State 3u) ([[Gnaiger 2009 Int J Biochem Cell Biol|Gnaiger 2009]]; [[Rasmussen 2000 Mol Cell Biochem|Rasmussen and Rasmussen 2000]]).
