Abstract: | In order to provide reference data, adenine nucleotide, creatine phosphate, glycogen, glycolytic intermediates and lactate muscle contents were measured in 49 dogs under resting conditions and during prolonged physical exercise of moderate intensity performed until exhaustion. Both the resting and exercise values of the measured variables were remarkably similar to those described in human subjects, except muscle lactate content which achieved higher values during submaximal exercise in dogs than in men. |
