Abstract
A METHOD for the in vivo determination of the rate of exchange of phosphate in red blood cells by means of the s 32P coefficient has already been described. This coefficient measures the outflow of phosphorus-32 from circulating labelled red blood cells1. It has been shown that s 32P represents the turnover-rate of acid-soluble phosphate in the red blood cell2.
