Comparison of CoA and acetyl-CoA concentrations (nmol/g wet weight) in rat liver and kidney from various literature sources.

Bergmeyer [27] a			Shibata et al. [21] N = 5		Present Findings b N = 16
	Liver	Kidney	Liver	Kidney	Liver	Kidney
CoA	135–158	68	161	68	87.2 ± 12.2 (63–124)	19.1 ± 6.2 (8–31)
Acetyl-CoA	22–47	18–43	9	5	19.4 ± 3.8 (10–35)	1.30 ± 0.60 (0.2–3.6)

^a The data are a compilation of several references. See Bergmeyer [27] for the original references. ^b The average values are from Table 1 assuming that 1 g wet weight of tissue contains 100 mg of protein. The numbers in parentheses represent the range of values from minimum to maximum.
