Zinc in the Luteal and Interstitial Tissue of the Rabbit Ovary in Early Pregnancy

Nature New Biology volume 236, pages 53–54 (1972)Cite this article

Abstract

AS an extension of earlier work on zinc in the rabbit uterus1 we have measured both the zinc content and the uptake of 65Zn by the genital tract and associated tissues and body fluids of the rabbit at certain stages of reproductive activity. Here we report findings concerned with the exchange of zinc in the luteal and interstitial ovarian tissue.
