Abstract

apparently influenced by the calcium content of the diet and it would appear likely that in animals maintained on a diet with fairly high calcium, such as the rats used in the present studies, this process might be only partly responsible for the pre- ferential utilization of calcium over strontium. SUMMARY 1. The absorption of calcium, strontium, barium and radium from the gastrointestinal tract of the rat has been studied by means of double radio- active-tracer techniques.
