Abstract
IT has been established in this laboratory that vitamin A alcohol is associated with the α1-globulin of rat serum, but not with the low- or high-density lipoproteins and probably also not with the α1-glyco-protein1. In continuation, the absorption of vitamin A alcohol and its transport to the liver as the ester have been studied.
