Summary:A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Medicine University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg for the Degree of Master of Science. August 1994 === This dissertation discusses the results of a group of experimental studies performed on chickens to show the effects of vitamin D status on vitamin D metabolism and the distribution of its metabolites in various organs.
