Abstract

1. 1. Tritiated water was found to rapidly equilibrate with the body water of chicks after injection. 2. 2. The ³H also rapidly appeared in both liver and carcass fatty acids, with the greatest rates of incorporation occurring in the initial time periods of measurement. 3. 3. Incorporation of ³H into fatty acids in the liver appeared to proceed primarily via de novo synthesis whereas incorporation of ³H into fatty acids in the carcass occurred primarily via chain elongation.
