lactate thresholds

Lactate is a metabolic product of the so-called anaerobic lactacid glucose metabolism. This metabolic pathway enables the energy supply from glucose without oxygen (? anaerobic). In addition to the energy carrier ATP (=adenosine triphosphate), lactate, a salt of lactic acid, is also produced. At rest, the lactate reference range is between 0.9 and 2.0 mmol/l. … Lactate thresholds

Lactate determination The principle for the determination of lactate levels in blood is based on the photometric determination of a dye which is produced by adding two enzymes. More precisely, these are the two enzymes lactate oxidase (“LOD”) and peroxidase (“POD”). First the lactate present in the blood reacts with the lactate oxidase to form … Lactate determination | Lactate thresholds
