ABSTRACT
Disorders in energetical processes are described from the point of view of energy production and the possibility of substitution of substrates for ATP synthesis. 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 beta-oxidation and cholesterol and triacylglyceroles levels lowering are reported.

Laboratory method for studies of clinical disorders of beta-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 beta-oxidation and cholesterol and triacylglyceroles levels lowering are reported.
