Abstract
The acetate turnover rates as determined by single injection and constant rate infusion isotope dilution techniques have been compared. Two experiments in which the techniques were super-imposed gave acetate turnover rates 38 and 25% lower, respectively, for the constant rate infusion determination as compared to the single injection determination. The possible causes of these differences are discussed and either technique is considered useful for comparative purposes.
