Galactose metabolism in the red cells shows marked interspecies and even intraspecies variations. Red cells of guinea pig, dog and a group of rabbits metabolize galactose to a higher extent than those of other species, including human. In the rabbit, the difference in red cell galactokinase activity
## Abstract Under physiological conditions, erythrocytes of the horse metabolized 638 ± 37 (± SE) nmoles glucose/ml cells/hr at 37°C compared to 942 ± 31 for the cat, 1,329 ± 44 for the dog, and 1,485 ± 43 for man. On an absolute basis, pentose phosphate metabolism was similar between species, with
