First use of triply labelled water analysis for energy expenditure measurements in mice
Abstract The doubly labelled water (DLW) method is widely used to determine energy expenditure. In this work, we demonstrate the addition of the third stable isotope, 17O, to turn it into triply labelled water (TLW), using the three isotopes measurement of optical spectrometry. We performed TLW (2H,...
