Abstract
There can now be little doubt that glucose is the principal precursor of lactose in the mammary gland. Evidence for this comes formin vivoandin vitrostudies, using both analytical and isotopic techniques (1), though considerable species differences have been noted.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
