Indirect calorimetry machine1/1/2023 ![]() ![]() This method allows estimating BEE and REE as well as identification of energy substrates that are predominantly metabolized by the body at a specific moment. It has high reproducibility and has been considered a gold standard method. Respiratory indirect calorimetry (IC) is a noninvasive and highly accurate method of metabolic rate, which has an error of less than 1%. On the assumption that all the oxygen is used to oxidize degradable fuels and all the CO 2 thereby evolved is recovered, it is possible to estimate the total amount of energy produced from the chemical energy of nutrients and converted into the chemical energy of ATP, with some loss of energy during the oxidation process. Indirect calorimetry measures O 2 consumption and CO 2 production. ![]()
