Abstract
Rats were fed a basic diet supplemented with sodium alginate and with tracer amounts of strontium-85 and calcium-45. Absorption of strontium was always inhibited by the alginate to a greater extent than absorption of calcium. Discrimination against strontium was greatest in alginate containing a high proportion of guluronic acid.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
