Abstract
Of 3 groups of weanling rats, two were given rachitogenic diets, the third a diet adequate in this respect. Later the former animals were given choice between cotton seed oil and a mixture of this oil and irradiated ergosterol; one of the 10 animals revealed a slight preference for the oil alone, the others did not discriminate.Keywords
