%X Total entry rate of blood glucose and the rate of irreversible loss of blood acetate and its oxidation have been examined in sheep at rest and while walking on a horizontal treadmill at 5 km/h for 2 h. Sheep were given their daily ration of 1000 g chaff in 24 equal portions at hourly intervals and received multiple intravenous injections of [2-3H]glucose and intravenous infusions of [1-14C]acetate and NaH14C03 ? At rest the total entry rate of blood glucose was 0·44 ± 0·03 mmol/min (values given as mean ± s.e.m. for four sheep), the glucose pool was 23 ± 1 mmol and the rate of irreversible loss of blood acetate was 2·3 ± 0·1 mmol/min. During exercise, the total entry rate of blood glucose was 0·84 ± O· 04 mmol/min, the glucose pool was 27 ± 2 mmol and the rate of irreversible loss of blood acetate was 2·6 ± O· 1 mmol/min.
