Blood glucose, lactate and pyruvate in kwashiorkor.
I . The blood sugar, lactate and pyruvate levels of sixty-nine Ugandan children, during treatment for kwashiorkor, have been studied. 2. The majority of untreated cases had low levels of blood glucose but high levels of lactate and pyruvate. Children with the lowest glucose levels had the lowest serum protein values and gained weight more slowly. 3. The response of the blood glucose to glucagon...
متن کاملBlood Changes following Glucose, Lactate, and Pyruvate Injections in Man*
The metabolism of pyruvic acid has been extensively investigated in vitro, but few studies have been made in vivo. It has been shown that pyruvate can be converted to glucose in the rabbit (1) and to lactate in the rabbit and the dog (l-5). Furthermore, injected pyruvate disappears rapidly from the blood in the dog (5) and the rabbit (2). The injection or ingestion of glucose is followed by a r...
متن کاملBlood pyruvate and lactate levels during oral and intravenous glucose tolerance tests in diabetes mellitus.
1. Blood pyruvate and lactate levels during oral and intravenous glucose tolerance tests are described in obese and non-obese non-diabetic, maturity-onset diabetic and insulin-requiring diabetic groups of women. 2. Mean fasting blood pyruvate levels were similar in non-diabetic, maturityonset diabetic and insulin-requiring diabetic subjects of similar degree of obesity. Mean levels were higher ...
متن کاملEnzymic fluorometric continuous-flow assays for blood glucose, lactate, pyruvate, alanine, glycerol, and 3-hydroxybutyrate.
We describe enzymic fluorometric methods of automated analysis for glucose, lactate, pyruvate, 3-hydroxybutyrate, glycerol, and alanine in perchloric acid extracts of blood. Unmodified Technicon AutoAnalyzer II apparatus is used. The usual concentrations of all these metabolites can be measured in as little as 0.1 ml of blood from a fasting subject. Within-batch and between-batch coefficients o...
متن کاملBiological variation of lactate and pyruvate in blood.
Measurement of lactate and pyruvate in whole blood is valuable in critical-care medicine and exercise physiology. However, information on the biological variability of lactate and pyruvate is lacking, a fact that may seem surprising when one considers the many reports on lactate and pyruvate as indicators of the state of tissue oxidation. To investigate the analytical and biological variation o...
