Abstract: | This paper describes a simple chromatographic technique on Sephadex LH20 for the separation of vitamin D3 sulfate from free vitamin D3 and its metabolites. This technique has been used in the study of vitamin D3 sulfate metabolism in rats. Seven hours after injection of vitamin D3 sulfate (35S or 35S and 3H) only the peak of vitamin D sulfoconjugate was found in chromatographic elution of serum extracts. |
