A couple of references concerning the use of 13C-acetate are:
Venters et al (1991) "Uniform 13C Isotope Labeling of Proteins with
Sodium Acetate for NMR Studies: Application to Human Carbonic
Anhydrase II" Biochemistry 30, 4491-4494.
and,
Venters et al (1995) "High-level 2H/13C/15N labeling of proteins for
NMR studies" Journal of Biomolecular NMR 5, 339-344.
Hope that these help.
