Abstract
Free fatty acid (FFA) transport was measured in 11 and glycerol turnover in 5 newborns with continuous tracer infusion of [1-13C]palmitate or [2-13C]glycerol, respectively. In addition, simultaneous determination of glucose production in the latter group with [6,6-2H2]glucose tracer and measurement of the appearance rate of [13C]glucose derived from [13C]glycerol allowed calculation of gluconeogenesis from glycerol.
