Successive manometric determinations of oxygen, aerobic carbon dioxide, and anaerobic carbon dioxide quotients for the same samples of bovine dental pulp indicated that glucose depresses the oxygen consumption rate and that respiration depresses the rate of glycolysis. Respiration and glycolysis proceeded at higher rates in dentinogenically active pulp than in inactive pulp. Although the pulp is capable of prominent anaerobic glycolysis, it can be sustained at high levels only with respiratory support.
