Abstract
Cholesterol-4-C14 oleate and cholesterol-4-C14 were fed in a test meal to lymph fistula rats. Free cholesterol was absorbed to a greater extent than esterified cholesterol. Preliminary hydrolysis apparently is obligatory for absorption of cholesterol esters and only free cholesterol can enter the intestinal wall.Keywords
