laktaattipitoisuus
Laktaattipitoisuus refers to the concentration of lactate in a biological fluid, most commonly blood. Lactate is a byproduct of anaerobic metabolism, meaning it is produced when the body's cells, particularly muscle cells, do not receive enough oxygen to produce energy through aerobic respiration. This process is known as the Cori cycle.
In healthy individuals at rest, lactate levels in the blood are typically low, usually between 0.5 and
Elevated lactatatepitoisuus can be an indicator of various physiological states or medical conditions. Besides intense exercise,
