Hi, just curious - is pyruvate oxidation (pyruvate -> Acetyl CoA) considered part of the Krebs cycle? Or does the Krebs cycle start with Acetyl CoA?
I've seen websites start with pyruvate, but that precludes the possibility of beta-oxidation of lipids entering into the Krebs cycle by Acetyl CoA.

Kreb cycle starts after the addition of acetyl-coA
