Forty-six daily infusions of 22.7 per cent dextrose were given in a four-day period to 12 healthy men. The following week, nine of these subjects each received three daily infusions of a 15 per cent fat emulsion. The dextrose and fat emulsion infusions were approximately equal in caloric content and caloric rates of infusion. There were no febrile responses. The temperature patterns of the control days, dextrose infusion days and fat infusion days were substantially the same.
