Global untargeted metabolic profiling of human sweat from exercising men and women

Identified compounds included amino acids, peptides, nucleotides, carbohydrates, xenobiotics, and cellular protectants.Previously identified compounds present in sweat included betaine, lactate, pyruvate, urea, caffeine,several amino acids, and others.Extended periods of exercise resulted in a 2-fol...

Description
Summary:Identified compounds included amino acids, peptides, nucleotides, carbohydrates, xenobiotics, and cellular protectants.Previously identified compounds present in sweat included betaine, lactate, pyruvate, urea, caffeine,several amino acids, and others.Extended periods of exercise resulted in a 2-fold decrease in several metabolites associated with energy metabolism, such as lactate and pyruvate. Exercise reduced glucose levels ~30% at 40 and 60 minutes (p<0.05) in subjects drinking water while no significant decrease in glucose was observed when subjects drank the full calorie sports drink.
