Glycogen (or exogenous glucose) was the only energy source utilized by adult Fasciola hepatica under a number of different incubation conditions. When exogenous glucose was present in the incubation medium, significant amounts of lactate were excreted. Anaerobically, in the presence of glucose, lactate accounted for 20% of the total end products measured. In the absence of glucose, organic acid production accounted for approximately 60% of glycogen carbon utilized; this value was reduced to 40% in the presence of exogenous glucose. There was no appreciable Pasteur effect.
