During alimentary lipemia and lipemia produced by intravenous injection of fat emulsions there was a rise in the concentration of free fatty acid in serum. The free fatty acid was found in the non-turbid portion of serum (infranatant of high speed centrifugation). Injection of heparin produced an elevation of free fatty acid concentration which was greater in lipemic than in fasting subjects. A portion of this elevation after heparin was attributable to in vitro lipolysis. 2. It is suggested that lipolysis with free fatty acid formation may play a role in normal fat metabolism and transport.
