Abstract
Total blood Fe in 13 newly-hatched chicks was 35.5 mg./lOO ml. (S.D. 2.0). The livers of 21 newly-hatched chicks contained only 45.4 [mu]g. total Fe (S.D. 12.5) and 22.7 [mu]g. non-heme Fe (S.D. 5.9). Apparently the liver of the newly-hatched chick contains no appreciable store of Fe.Keywords
