The oxidation of pyruvate in pigeon breast muscle
Open accessAbstract
PYRUVATE is very readily oxidized in animal tissues, yet little is known about the immediate products of its oxidation.Such oxidative reactions of pyruvate as are known to occur-dismutation, formation of succinate, acetate or ketone bodies-are side reactions whose significance varies from tissue to tissue: in no tissue can these reactions account for the total oxidation, and in some tissues,

“In subsequent work, Krebs (4) determined that the two carbon atoms that condensed with OAA to form citrate were derived from pyruvate and that oxygen consumption in muscle increases when pyruvate is added.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
