Popis: We have evaluated the possibility of monitoring the plasma lactate concentration in human volunteers during cycle ergometer exercise using subcutaneous and transcutaneous microdialysis. In transcutaneous microdialysis, the relative increase in dialysate lactate concentration exceeded that of plasma lactate concentration by a factor of 6 during exercise due to exercise-induced lactate secretion in sweat. During exercise the subcutaneous microdialysis dialysate lactate concentration underestimated the plasma lactate concentration possibly due to diffusion limitation or adipose tissue lactate production. While it was demonstrated that microdialysis can be used for on-line lactate monitoring, neither subcutaneous nor transcutaneous dialysate lactate concentration were linearly related to the plasma lactate concentration during exercise, and it was found therefore that it was not possible to monitor directly plasma lactate concentration during exercise.
