Presented by: Marshall McCue, PhD. Stable isotope analysis is a powerful tool for obesity research. Nutrients labeled with these tracers are nontoxic to animal models and can be continuously tracked in vivo. In this webinar, Dr. Marshall McCue reviews stable isotope biochemistry, standard nomenclature, unit conversions and simple calculations. In addition, he presents case [...]
