Vitamin a in Poultry Flesh and Fat

چکیده
In a previous investigation 2 the writers studied the vitamin B content of poultry flesh and eggs. In this paper they report the results of experiments conducted with rats for the purpose of determining the vitamin A value of the body flesh and fat of several species of domestic fowl. These tests were made on fowls reared under ordinary conditions and fed rations which were in general use. The vitamin A content of eggs has already been reported by several investigators/but there appears to be no information in the literature concerning the amount of vitamin A in the products tested by the writers.
