Absolute rates of cholesterol synthesis in extrahepatic tissues measured with 3H-labeled water and 14C-labeled substrates.

This study was undertaken to develop techniques for measuring absolute rates of sterol synthesis in extrahepatic tissues in vitro and to estimate the magnitude of the errors inherent in the use of various 14C-labeled substrates for such measurements. Initial studies showed that significant errors we...
