Laboratory method for studies of clinical disorders of β-oxidation is described. The effects of other diet components such as microelements (Cr3+ ions) and non-digestible oligofructans (inulin and oligofructose) as stimulatory factors on the activity of β-oxidation and cholesterol and triacylglyceroles levels lowering are reported.

Keywords: energy production, β-oxidation, chromium ions, human, rats, broilers, laboratory method
