Abstract:
:Although the role of the lymphatic circulation in the uptake of dietary fat is well established, the absorption of water-soluble compounds, secreted by the enterocyte into the lymph, has received little attention. In the present study an estimate is made of the amount of dietary glucose that can be absorbed via the lymphatic system in the rat.
