Abstract

The strontium-85 to calcium-47 ratio in the body of Iactating, nonlactating and control animals and in the litter was determined at several time intervals after an intraperitoneal application of radioactive isotopes (0-120 hours). The body ratio was slightly higher in Iactating animals during the early phase of Iactation (0-5 day) and much higher during the late phase of lactation (12-17 day) indicating a greatly reduced discrimination against strontium.
