TL;DRAbstract

The author has described a washed rat liver enzyme suspension which oxidizes fatty acids in the presence of adenosine triph0sphate.lOn further study it has been found that these preparations oxidize octanoate to acetoacetate according to the equation (1) C,HIbCOOH + 302 -+ 2CH&OCH&OOH + 2H,O
