Abstract
APART from vitamin B12, very little is known about the relation of vitamins and plasma proteins1–3. By coupling the availability of pure human blood fractions with sensitive, specific microbial and chemical vitamin assays, the amount of vitamin in various fractions of human plasma was determined. Such information is needed for charting transport mechanisms for the various vitamins or, conversely, assigning transport functions to the various blood proteins.
