Distribution of Phosphorus in the Leg Bones of Chickens

The assimilation of radio‐active phosphorus deficiency in rats

“…Chievitz & Hevesy [1937] and Dols et al [1937] did not find any outstanding difference in the distribution of radio-P in rachitic and normal rats. Dols et al [1938b] found a higher content of radio-P in the bones of rachitic chickens than in those of normal birds. The results reported in the present paper support the findings of the latter workers since per unit of weight, the badly calcified bones took up more radio-P than the normal ones.…”

“…Chievitz & Hevesy [1937], Dols, Jansen, Sizoo & de Vries [1937], Dols, Jansen, Sizoo & van der Maas [1938b] and Cohn & Greenberg [1939] have reported the findings with rachitic animals, both before and after vitamin D medication. However, no investigation appears to have been made of the changes in the detailed distribution of radio-P in the body when given to animals after subjection to mild P deprivation for several weeks.…”

“…To date, most of the investigations employing radioautography deal with the isotope P^-. Thus its distribution was studied in bones by Dols et al (1938) and Belanger and Leblond (1946), in tomato fruits by Arnon et al (1940), in squash plants by Colwell (1942), and in insects by Lindsay and Craig (1942). "Autographs" have been obtained in bone studies with radioactive calcium and strontium by Pecher (1941) and Treadwell et al (1942).…”
