Lactic acid and blood sugar in exudates and transudates
The authors found that in exudates the lactic acid content is higher (4 times higher on average), and the sugar content is significantly lower (by 1/2 on average) than in blood. Increase of lactic acid occurs due to sugar glycolysis by enzymes of leukocytes (as a result, in exudates rich in leukocytes, higher amounts of lactic acid are found). In transudates the amount of sugar and lactic acid is almost the same as in blood (there is no glycolysis).
