Phagocytosis of alpha-tocopheryl nicotinate by the reticuloendothelial system: a microautoradiographic study.
The cellular distribution of labelled alpha-tocopheryl nicotinate after intravenous administration to normal rats was examined by light microscopic autoradiography. The compound was found to have accumulated in cells of the reticuloendothelial system.
