## Abstract The concentration of copper in the livers of Long‐Evans rats with cinnamon‐like coat color (LEC), in which hepatitis and then hepatomas develop spontaneously, was recently found to be abnormally high. Therefore, we examined the copper concentrations in the livers of LEC F~1~ backcrosses
Biliary copper excretion was studied in male, bilecannulated rats of the inbred strains Fischer, Brown Norway, WAG/Rij and Lewis. After intravenous injection of 10,30 and 60 pg copper per 100 gm body weight, two patterns of copper excretion were observed; their profiles varied with the copper dose a
