Ingestion of Triton WR-1339 by Fat-Storing Cells

Abstract

Triton WR-1339 was intraperitoneally injected into rats and its accumulation in hepatic lobule cells was observed under an electron microscope. In the lipid granules of fat-storing cells, much Triton accumulated during the first 30min to 3hr post-injection. Kupffer cells scarcely, and endothelial cells slightly, ingested Triton.
