Adventitious factors affecting the concentration of free fatty acids in the plasma of rats

A M Barrett
PMCID: PMC1703944  PMID: 14211687

Abstract

The concentration of free fatty acids in the plasma of rats has been shown to be affected by the sex and body weight of the animals, their external environment, the availability of food and water, and the time of day and season of the year.
