TABLE 3

CYP content, G6Pase activity, and MPPG measured in homogenate and microsomal samples prepared from fresh dog kidney cortex, frozen dog kidney cortex, and frozen dog liver

Average values are presented, with CVs in parentheses. G6Pase activity was not measured in samples prepared from fresh dog kidney cortex. Data for individual dogs are presented (Supplemental Table S2).
