Rapid uptake of calcium in maturing enamel of the rat incisor.
Six rats were given intravascular injections containing 45Ca, killed by perfusion with fixative and the incisor teeth removed within 2 min. Direct autoradiography of the maturing enamel surface showed bands of 45Ca uptake at this short interval.
