An experimental study on calcium absorption.

Calcium metabolism represents one of the most interesting chapters of modern investigation. Metabolic studies were carried out for the past quoter of the century and the names of Cox (1936), Korelitz (1937), McCance (1936), Thomas (1952) Hansard (1953), Nicolaysen (1953), Harrison (1955), Comar (1957), Dupuis (1957), Singer (1957), McDona1d (1957), Bekemeier (1959), Haavaldsen (1958), Palmer (1958), Linkis (1957) are permanently assorted with the advances made in this large field. The absorptive surface of the small intestine in man is estimated to exceed 10 square meters or about 8 times the area of skin of an average adult (Harkins, 1957).
