Lactate and pyruvate content was determined by enzymatic methods using lactate dehydrogenase.

Cytotoxic effects were determined using lactate dehydrogenase release assay.

Cytotoxicity was assessed using lactate dehydrogenase assays, and morphological changes were observed using phase contrast microscopy.

Previous studies using lactate as a substrate, however, showed that both gluconeogenesis and oxidative responses were decreased in LS.

Conclusions: A predictive model for distinguishing disseminated histoplasmosis from MAC infection was developed using lactate dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphatase levels as well as WBC count.

Using lactate as the electron donor and carbon source, and sulfate as the electron acceptor, wild type D. vulgaris shows motility on soft agar plates.
