Abstract
Heparin-S35 was extracted from the liver of dogs administered inorganic Na2S35O4. Distribution of this heparin was determined in rats. The mast cells took up injected heparin S35 and isotope activity persisted in the liver and spleen after virtual disappearance from the plasma. Urinary excretion in dogs accounted for only about 20% of the injected isotope at a time when plasma anticoagulant activity had returned to normal.Keywords
