Abstract

These studies on fat absorption in rats show that a small dose was relatively rapidly absorbed in the jejunum. With larger doses it was also absorbed in the ileum. When larger doses were given the jejunum responded to the increased load with an increased absorption, and fat was also absorbed in the ileum.
