| Abstract | [SUMMARY]Octanoic acid is absorbed rapidly from the small inestine. Some appears promptly in the plasma. A significant amount is incorporated into long chain fatty acids and appears in the circulating glycerids. The latter process is accelerated by previous intake of an isocaloric diet in which all of the fat is derived from MCT. Oxidation of ingested octanoic acid is accelerated when the previous diet has been hypocaloric. Under these conditions, minimal incorporation of label from ingested octanoic acid is found in plasma glycerides. |
