title: The measurement of plasma acetate by a manual or automated technique in diabetic and non-diabetic subjects.
abstract: A method is described for the measurement of acetate in plasma by an enzymatic technique using acetate kinase, either manually or with the Multistat centrifugal analyser. The technique was used to compare concentrations in diabetic and non-diabetic subjects and to determine correlates with other intermediary metabolites.
