“…At the same time, the rate of infusion of [6,6-2 H 2 ]glucose was altered to approximate the anticipated pattern of fall in EGP, thereby minimizing the change in plasma glucose enrichment. Blood was sampled from the arterialized venous site at Ϫ120, Ϫ30, Ϫ20, Ϫ10, 0, 5,10,15,20,30,40,50,60,75,90,120,150,180,210,240,260,280, 300, 360, and 420 min. Intravenous lines were then removed, and the subject ate lunch immediately after completion of the study (ϳ1600 -1700) and a supper at ϳ2000 -2030.…”
