    Author: Toyoshima S, Watanabe F, Saido H, Miyatake K, Nakano Y.
    Journal: Biosci Biotechnol Biochem; 1995 Aug; 59(8):1598-9. PubMed ID: 7549112.
    Abstract:
    Ketone bodies were assayed in the urine of ten-week-old vitamin B12-deficient rats by a high-performance liquid chromatography. The urinary excretion of ketone bodies (352.5 +/- 68.3 mumol/day) as well as of methylmalonic acid was increased significantly by dietary vitamin B12 deficiency.
