In medicine, the Warburg result is that the observation that the majority cancer cells preponderantly turn out energy by a high rate of metabolism followed by carboxylic acid fermentation within the cytoplasm, instead of by a relatively low rate of metabolism followed by oxidization of pyruvate in mitochondria as in most traditional cells.
