In chemistry, lactate is the final byproduct of anaerobic glycolysis. Accumulation of this compound in tissues is responsible for the condition called oxygen debt. Word origin: Latin lactÄtus, ptp. of lactÄre to suckle. Related forms: lactation (noun) Related terms: Excess lactate; Ferrous lactate; Amrinone lactate; Lactate dehydratase; Lactate dehydrogenase
The lactate test measures the level of lactate in the blood at a given point in time. A normal lactate level indicates that a person does not have lactic acidosis, that there is sufficient oxygen at the cellular level, and/or that their signs and symptoms are not caused by lactic acidosis. ^ Back to top.
