1. The specific radioactivity of [14C]cholesterol in plasma and in serial biopsies of muscle and skin was measured in Rhesus monkeys for 156 days after a single intravenous injection of [14C]cholesterol. 2. Analysis of the specific radioactivity—time curves in terms of a two-compartment system indicated that all the cholesterol of muscle is exchangeable with the plasma cholesterol and that local synthesis does not contribute significantly to the cholesterol in muscle. 3. Analysis of the curve for specific radioactivity of skin cholesterol suggested the presence of a small pool of cholesterol with slow turnover. A contribution to skin cholesterol from local synthesis could not be excluded.

Concentrate Preparation

Because of the well known wide normal range of the factor VIII activity between 60 to 170% I man, selecting of donors with high activity levels would be of advantaae for the preparation of factor VIII concentrates. This is especially true for preparing small-pool fractions, as for technical reasons the final product cannot be controlled for its factor VIII content. In preliminary investigations, we reported on elsewhere, high factor VIII activity in donors estimated before a donation had been rarely reproducible before a second donation after 8-12 weeks. So as a preliminary result of finding a donor’s factor VIII level varying from donation to donation selecting of plasmas with high factor VIII content for concentrate preparation could only be establishedby re-estimating the activity before each donation. Proceeding in this way would be much too troublesome. To get more reliable information whether a healthy subject’s high factor VIII plasma level is distinctly varying or rather constant we assayed the plasma of 200 donors with factor VIII activity > 120% two times more before donation. The results confirmed our preliminary findings, especially the fact that a high plasma factor VIII activity in experienced donors was rarely reproducible when re-estimated before a second and third donation. As a consequence selecting of donors with high factor VIII procoaqulant activity for preparing small-pool factor VIII concentrates is impracticable.
