[A method of studying carbohydrate metabolism]. / Metod issledovaniia uglevodnogo obmena.

A new method of studying carbohydrate metabolism is described. It involves glucose injection according to a certain glucose law, followed by measurement of the dynamics of its concentration in the peripheral blood and computation, based on the models suggested, of the quantitative characteristics of metabolism; compartment of glucose distribution, maximum assimilation of glucose from its supply, and so forth. The individual characteristics of carbohydrate metabolism are shown to change within broad ranges (from 0.92 to 0.11 g/min). Materials on the method reproducibility are provided.
