Measurement of 13C-labeled fatty acid oxidation is hindered by the need for acetate correction, measurement of VCO2 in a controlled environment and frequent collection of breath samples. The use of deuterium labeled fatty acids may over come these limitations. Herein, d31-palmitate was validated against [1-13C]-palmitate during exercise. Thirteen subjects with BMI = 22.9 3 kg/m2 and % body fat = 19.6 11% were subjected to 2 or 4 hours of exercise at 25% VO2 max. The d31-palmitate and [1-13C]-palmitate were given orally, in a liquid meal at breakfast. The d3-acetate and [1-13C]-acetate were given during another visit for acetate sequestration correction. Recovery of d31-palmitate in urinary water at 9 h post-dose was compared to [1-13C]-palmitate recovery in breath. Cumulative recovery of d31-palmitate was 10.6 3% and that of [1-13C]-palmitate was 5.6 2%. The d3-acetate and [1-13C]-acetate recoveries were 85 4% and 54 4% respectively. When [1-13C]-acetate recovery was used to correct 13C data, the average % recovery differences were 0.4 3%. Uncorrected d31-palmitate and group-acetate corrected [1-13C]-palmitate were well correlated (y = 0.96x + 0; P <0.0001) when used to measure fatty acid oxidation during exercise. Thus d31-palmitate can be used in outpatient settings as it eliminates the need for acetate correction and frequent sampling.
