The present paper reports some aspects of glycolipid metabolism observed during and after dialysis of varying duration, and the effects of glucose content in dialysis fluid. Some substances used in dialysis interfere with glycolipid metabolism: heparin (Robinson and French, 1960; Wolff and Wolff, 1960); sodium acetate (Bloch, 1947; Ghosal et al, 1969; Mion et al, 1964); and glucose in high (Leonards et al, 1961; Mendelssonhn et al, 1967) or low concentrations (Drukker et al, 1964; Hagstam et al, 1969) or, more recently, completely eliminated (Alwall et al, 1970; Hubner et al, 1971).
