The survival time of DF 32 P-labelled erythrocytes in adult male mink.
The study indicated that intravenously administered DF(32)P was a suitable label for mink erythrocytes. The mean survival time of erythrocytes of 29 adult male mink labelled with diisopropyl phosphorofluoridate(32)P(DF(32)P) was 92.2 +/- 4.1 (SEM) days. Three colour types were tested: standard dark, pastel and sapphire. No significant difference in erythrocyte life span relating to colour type was apparent in these animals.
