Abstract
“Receptors”for intrinsic factor exist in rat, bull, and rabbit liver homogenate precipitate, and remain intact after lyophilization and acetone-washing of the homogenate. There appears to be a stoichiometric relation between receptors, intrinsic factor, and Vit. B12. Within stated limits, an incubation system of receptors, intrinsic factor, and/or Co60-B12 may prove useful for assay of intrinsic factor, of the quantity of free B12 in biological fluids, and of receptors.Keywords
