Descriptor metabolismo basal
Entry term(s) índice metabólico en reposo
Scope note: Metabolismo (p. ej., producción de calor) de un organismo en estado de ayuno, vigilia e inactivo. Puede determinarse directamente mediante un calorímetro o indirectamente calculando los productos finales de la oxidación en el interior del organismo o por la cantidad de oxígeno utilizado.
