(13) The feeding of rats for a space of 30 days on diets with elevated content of starch or saccharose (71 per cent of the total calorific value) was followed by an accelerated synthesis and secretion into the blood of pre-beta-lipoproteins.
(14) It was shown that a calorie-restricted diet (at 37% of the ad libitum calorific level) did not change the rate of succinate oxidation coupled with oxidative phosphorylation in homogenates, but resulted in a decrease of succinate, glutamate plus malate and beta-hydroxybutyrate oxidation and cytochrome c-oxidase activity in isolated mitochondria without any uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation or change in cytochrome content in the mitochondria.
(15) Ten patients with stable severe chronic obstructive lung disease underwent a six minute walk before and 45 minutes after taking 920 kcal of a fat rich drink, an isocalorific amount of a carbohydrate rich drink, and an equal volume of a non-calorific control liquid on three separate days, in a double blind randomised crossover study.

Colorific
Definition:
(a.) Capable of communicating color or tint to other bodies.
Example Sentences:
