Abstract

A method for perfusion of isolated canine tibia is described.With this procedure the influence of different albumins on the uptake of tritiated 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (3H-25(OH)D3) by the tibia has been studied.Bovine serum albumin at 1% concentration seems to be optimum for this system.This experimental approach seems to be useful for the study of mineral metabolism.
