[Detection of retinaldehyde in mouse liver].
Vitamin A metabolites were studied in the liver of white mice, hamsters, guinea-pigs and rabbits after a single administration of retinyl acetate per os.  In addition to retinol and retinyl palmitate, the mouse showed retinaldehyde which accumulated in the liver in the maximum concentration 3 hours later after the vitamin administration.  Retinaldehyde isolated on aluminium oxide by means of TCA was examined with respect to absorption spectra in the UV-light, NaBH4 reduction with subsequent isolation of anhydrovitamin A from the reduced product as well as to absorption peaks in reactions with SbCl3 and thiobarbituric acid.
