Special K: Testing the potassium link between radioactive rubidium (86Rb) turnover and metabolic rate

© 2014. Published by the Company of Biologists Ltd.The measurement of 86Rb turnover recently has been suggested as a useful method for measuring field metabolic rate in small animals. We investigated a proposed mechanism of 86Rb turnover, its analogy to K+, by comparing the turnover of 86Rb in a mod...
