Differences in acetate recovery factor between groups may interfere with tracer estimates of fat oxidation (letter to the editor)

  • Maastricht University

Research output: Contribution to journalComment/letter to the editorScientificpeer-review

Abstract

This letter to the editor argues that the assumption of a single value for the acetate recovery factor in carbon-13 stable isotope research for different individuals, can lead to significant errors in the outcomes of substrate utilization measurements.
