Abstract
Solutions of salts of the five Group-IIIA elements were given, intravenously, to mature Japanese quail. By 18 h, the accumulation maxima in the major tissues were: leg bones, 20% for Ga+3 (67 Ga label) in estradiol-treated males; liver, 51% for Al+3 (26 Al label) in control males; kidneys, 32% for In+3 (114m In label) in estradiol-treated males; and growing oocytes plus ova, 37% for In. Accumulations of Tl+1 (201 Tl label) were 6 times those for Ga or In in the brain and muscles, and. 1 times in plasma. The cumulative maxima in egg components over 8 (B; Tl) or 10 (Al; Ga; In) days were: B, 23% in albumen; Al, 38%, Ga 27%, In, 43% in yolks; Tl, 12% in shells. The accumulation of thallium in the eggshells markedly exceeded (P<.001) the deposits of the other IIIA elements in shells, Al being the next highest at .54%.
