Mice (BALB/c, age 3 months), given bread with 6% sodium
alginate 2 h before oral administration (by gavage) of 226RaCl2,
revealed a more than 100 times reduction of Ra uptake (measured in
whole body). In the same experiment 47Ca uptake was only 1.2 times
less than in controls (Vanderborght et al., 1971).
