title: [Influence of lactose rate on calcium fixation in bones. Study in rats].
abstract: This investigation was performed to study the effect of lactose on the fixation of calcium in bones of rats. Lactose 3% and 10% concentration was used and the action was compared to that obtained by 67 U.I. of vitamin D in 100 g diet. The data obtained indicated very definitely that the presence of lactose in the diet favorably influences the fixation of Ca in bone, when the amount is 10%; at 3% concentration lactose don't seem influence Ca fixation in bone.
