title: Effect of dichloroacetate on oxidative removal of lactate in mice after supramaximal exercise.
abstract: 1. The effect of dichloroacetate (DCA), which activates substrate oxidation on oxidative removal of lactate in mice after supramaximal exercise was investigated. 2. DCA significantly decreased the blood lactate concentration and increased the oxidative removal of lactate during prolonged exercise. 3. No significant differences were found in the removal of the blood lactate concentration, in oxidative removal of lactate after supramaximal exercise. 4. It is concluded that DCA administration which activates lactate oxidation during exercise does not activate lactate oxidation in mice after supramaximal exercise.
