Liver glycogen fractions at fed and fast states. Two groups of five rats (n=5) were kept as fed and 15 hour fast and the liver was analyzed for glycogen fractions by using three procedures: (a) Classical homogenization; (b) total glycogen-fractionation; and (c) Homogenization–free method. All measurements were done in triplicate. *, ** and *** indicate significance at a confidence levels of p≤0.05, p≤0.01 and p≤0.001 respectively.
