Abstract
Biologically active vit. A substances were synthesized by 3 different routes, which are described in detail. The final products were identical. Their biologic effect on rats was identical with that produced by cod-liver oil, but their potency was much lower than that accepted for the purest sample of natural crystalline vit.
