Abstract
Analyses for the conc. of total acid soluble P in muscle, kidney and liver tissue from 76 human subjects ranging in age from prematurity to 90 yrs. were made. In muscle the mean conc. increased progressively to 30 yrs. of age and decreased after 40; in liver and kidney the mean values increased progressively to 3 yrs. of age but remained fairly constant thereafter to 50 yrs., then declined steadily to 90 yrs.Keywords
