Progressive changes in iron levels, total iron binding capacity and hematocrit values in sera of rats infected with Trypanosoma lewisi are described. The host dietary group were: (1) complete or full complement; (2) iron-deficient, and (3) pair-fed or calorically restricted. The hematocrit values o
In the presence of vanadium, growth of Scenedesmus obliquus and Chlorella pyrenoidosa was increased five to sixfold as determined by dry weight, when cultured under autotrophic conditions for 7 days. The stimulation by vanadium decreased with increasing stability towards hydrolysis of the iron(III)-
