Abstract
Radioactive vit. B12 has been given orally or subcutaneously to 4 adult white rats. The radioactivity (entirely B12) was excreted primarily in the urine following injection, while the radioactivity (B12 + inorganic cobalt) was excreted primarily in the feces following oral administration.Keywords
