Title: Chemical analysis and quantitation of the tapetum lucidum

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4059959

A study was conducted to provide a basis for the evaluation of the biochemical nature of the $sup 226$Ra alterations of the beagle tapetum. Results indicated that zinc and/or melanin determinations in the tapetum nigrum and tapetum lucidum may allow quantitation of tapetum lucidum tissue without the need for physical separation of the tapetal layers.
