The fate of 3-methylglucose in rats was studied in view of previous findings that this sugar is actively absorbed from the intestine. Unchanged 3-methylglucose was identified in the urine following the administration of the sugar. The recovery is essentially quantitative provided that bacterial growth is inhibited during collection. E. coli can utilize 3-methylglucose as sole source of carbon.
