Abstract
Summary The incorporation of P32 into the phosphatides of the formed elements of normal human blood has been measured. A characteristic pattern was described for eryth-rocytes, leukocytes and platelets. Radiophos-phorus is incorporated into red cell phospha-tidic acid. The variable and high rates of incorporation of P32 into certain phosphatides of red cells, white cells and platelets would indicate the necessity of assessing this function by these cells when making such measurements in whole blood.
