Figure 6
Typical curve fit for leucine tracer:tracee ratio in VLDL, IDL and LDL apoB100 using mathematical modelling following an infusion
of [1-13C]leucine. VLDL shown as large squares. IDL shown as triangles. LDL shown as circles. The solid lines indicate the curve fit.
The modelling provides a measure of VLDL, IDL and LDL apoB100 fractional catabolic rate and production rate.
