Test results that are in “idle mode” i.e. measured
prior to exercise, should be between 0.5 mmol/L
and approx. 2.5 mmol/L. The resting values
depend considerably on the physiological
condition of the subject as well as the previous
nutritional intake. In some cases, the value can
be increased due to illness.
After exercise, the lactate value can be more
than 20 mmol/L, particularly in those engaged in
intensive professional sports depending on the
duration and intensity.
