Salway J.G. (ed.) Metabolism at a Glance

4th edition. — Wiley-Blackwell, 2017. — 148 p.Fully updated and extensively illustrated, this new edition of Metabolism at a Glance is now in full colour throughout, and includes new coverage of sports biochemistry; the metabolism of lipids, carbohydrates and cholesterol; glyceroneogenesis, α-oxidation and ω-oxidation of fatty acids. It also features the overlooked “Krebs Uric Acid Cycle”.Energy metabolism
