Abstract
Summary The behavior of a radioactive triglyceride-plasma complex prepared in vitro was compared to that of an “RE test emulsion” in normal and RE hyperfunctional rats. The removal rate and organ distribution of the particulate fat tracer was not influenced by RE hyperfunction. However, the corresponding dose of the “RE test emulsion” was removed more rapidly from plasma in RE hyperfunctional rats. Thus the particulate fat tracer does not appear to be removed by a phagocytic process and therefore behaves more like native lipid particles than foreign emulsified material. The capable technical assistance of Mrs. Betty Lyons and Miss Jackie Dempsey is gratefully acknowledged.Keywords
